It all began in the "Open House" a vacant house across from the declining Oakdale Methodist Church more than 40 years ago, where, with little money but a great deal of love, compassion, and prayer, a cadre of believers began an ecumenical ministry to the spiritual, emotional, and physical needs of those less fortunate - the Inner City Mission. Reverend Fred Toland's vision of what the Methodist Church could mean for Mobile grew to affect thousands of lives in ministry to those in need. Today, the vision is still alive and the ministry continues to grow. The need is great and there is still so much to be done! The Mission goes on, day after day, carrying out its ministry we are the hands of God. As did our founder, John Wesley, we continue to go to the people carrying a message of Christ centered hope, love and justice. |
