WHO WE ARE

As we begin again, The Dream, The Vision and The Mission has not changed, only our location(s) has changed until such a day we have our very own building again. Until then we simply go where God leads and continue to serve our community with His love and compassion being hands and feet where ever we are needed!

NCORC is a non-denominational community outreach program that is operated by volunteers from all denominations and walks of life. We simply love God and desire to serve others and live out the example that Jesus gave to us in the gospel of Matthew to feed the hungry, clothe the naked, help heal the sick and take care of those that have been imprisoned. Everything we offer is with NO STRINGS ATTACHED!

This outreach was started in February 2004 under the title of Matthew's House completely on faith, with no idea of how to do it or where it would take us.

Thousands of people have found help, hope and the love of Jesus through this open door. God continually amazes us as we have simply been obedient to His call.

We offer emergency food, clothing, hygiene and backpacks and school supplies to anyone in need.

Since 2006 medical students from the Vanderbilt Medical Center have been coming on this day and performing free health screenings consisting of eye exams, BP and Diabetes screenings.

Nashville Cares joined us in 2008 providing HIV testing and counseling.

The Shade Tree Clinic came along side us in the fall of 2008 with the gracious help of Dr.Robert Miller and began giving free flu shots. We have been able to vaccinate hundreds of homeless and less fortunate and save countless lives with this endeavor. Through the Matthew's House Outreach, the Shade Tree Clinic began initiatives and received further grant funding and began serveral other free flu shot clinics in the South Nashville area! The Vanderbilt nursing school soon joined in full force. Their participation has permitted the expansion of other vaccines to many other shelters. In 2010 efforts lead to the Department of Health and Human Services helping to get access to other vaccines such as tetnus and pneumonia. This would not have been possible if the need not been brought to attention of the medical commuity through the Matthew's House Outreach.

Two days a week we would meet with ex-offenders from all around the area as they transition from prison back into society and provide clothing, food and other needs based on individual assessments.

When a need arises that we are unable to fill we link them with other resource assistance programs.

By God's grace alone, in the past 10 years we were able to serve the needs of well over 8000 people. Thank you to all that have helped make this such an incredible outreach to the Middle TN area and beyond. You are the hands and feet of Jesus coming along side us.
