A New Season at Christ’s Body Ministries
Hello friends,
I want to share a little about what God is doing at Christ’s Body Ministries and invite you into an exciting new season with us.
We have just completed our new podcast facility, and beginning February 3, we will be launching our very first podcast. New episodes will drop every Tuesday. Through this podcast, we will share the stories, the sights, and the sounds of Denver, and most importantly, the people whose lives are being touched through this ministry. You will hear from guests who are experiencing homelessness, along with volunteers, pastors, and our staff, all sharing how God is at work through Christ’s Body.
None of this happens without you. Your generosity makes it possible for us to tell these stories and continue serving with dignity and compassion.
To celebrate this new chapter, I would love to personally invite you to our Open House on February 19 from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM.
This will be a relaxed and welcoming time to come see the ministry up close, enjoy great food prepared by Chef Monte, and take a guided tour of our facility. It is also the perfect opportunity to bring a friend and introduce them to what God is doing here.

We are also expanding our discipleship efforts. Currently, we offer Bible studies three times a week following our Daily Bread services. We are excited to grow that to five days a week, giving men consistent opportunities to walk in community as they grow in faith and restoration.
As we step into this new season, I want to ask you to consider how you might continue to stand with us. Our monthly expenses continue even when seasonal giving slows. If you do not already give regularly, would you consider becoming a monthly partner? Your consistent support helps sustain this work day after day.
Additionally, we are seeking 50 partners who would prayerfully consider a $5,000 gift over the next few months to help us through a particularly challenging first and second quarter. These gifts will allow us to meet urgent needs and continue serving without interruption.
Every meal served, every shower offered, every story shared, and every life changed is made possible because of faithful partners like you.
Thank you for walking with us, believing in this mission, and helping us carry the love of Christ into hard places.
With gratitude,
Dr. Jim Copeland
