Welcome to Beacon Street Ministries

At Beacon Street Ministries, we are dedicated to making a difference in the lives of the houseless, food and dwelling insecure individuals in Pinellas County. Our passion for serving the community drives us to continue our mission, and we are grateful for the opportunity to be a beacon of hope for those in need.

Food is more than just satiating an immediate need. When consistent nutritious food is provided, then the cycle of desperation and despair give way to hope and the indomitable human spirit is set free.

We are here to help provide nutritious food to the elderly, our veterans and to vulnerable families in Pinellas County.

Join us in our journey to make a positive difference, and together, let's make our community a better place for all.

Matthew 25: 35-40

“For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.

 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’

The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ ”
