Hello world!

Through the generosity and support of the Friends of Exodus Outreach Foundation, we have been able to expand our outreach, increase our impact, and continue sharing the love of Jesus Christ with those in desperate need.
The need in our community is greater than ever. Economic hardship, addiction, homelessness, and despair have left many struggling to survive. Yet, because of our partners, we have been able to meet people where they are, offer a hand up, and introduce them to the transforming power of God’s love.
Because of the generosity of our community, Exodus Homes continues to be a place where lives are rebuilt and hope is restored.
In 2025, we launched a critical facilities campaign to refurbish five of our residential properties and our Furniture Thrift Store — improvements essential to the safety, dignity, and long-term sustainability of our ministry. Thanks to the faithful generosity of our donors and partners, we raised 57% of our $583,000 goal. While work remains, this progress is a powerful testament to what this community can accomplish together, and we remain committed to completing the vision. Every dollar invested in these spaces is an investment in the men and women who will call them home.
In 2025, Exodus Homes served 127 men and women through our supportive housing and recovery programs. While this number is slightly lower than in previous years, it directly reflects the impact of our facilities campaign — with several residences temporarily offline due to critical repairs and renovations. These improvements are an investment in the future, and as properties are restored and returned to full capacity, we anticipate serving even more individuals in the years ahead. Every person who enters Exodus Homes arrives with a story that includes hardship, addiction, incarceration, or homelessness. Yet within these walls, 127 individuals found more than just a place to stay. They found structure, accountability, and a supportive community committed to helping them rebuild their lives.
Through community outreach and giveaway events, we provided clothing, furniture, food, hygiene items, coats, blankets, and other essentials to hundreds of individuals and families facing difficult circumstances. These moments of generosity create connection, dignity, and hope for people who often feel forgotten.
Through vocational training and employment support, residents gained the skills and confidence needed to reenter the workforce. Job readiness training, resume assistance, and real work experience through Exodus Works helped many individuals take meaningful steps toward financial independence and stability.
At the heart of Exodus Homes is the belief that people can change. Through recovery support, mentorship, accountability, and community, men and women are overcoming addiction, rebuilding relationships, and stepping into lives defined by purpose instead of their past. Every life restored strengthens families, improves neighborhoods, and builds a healthier community for all of us.
Every year, Exodus Homes proudly sponsors usually four or more Community Outreach Events, bringing hope, joy, and essential resources to our most vulnerable neighbors in Hickory, NC. These events are a true celebration of community, compassion, and transformation.
We provide free clothing, birthday cakes, haircuts, manicures, face painting, furniture, food, and much more to those in need. It’s a day of encouragement, where individuals and families can receive both practical support and spiritual upliftment.
The Exodus Outreach Missionary Church Choir fills the air with uplifting music, and Rev. Reggie Longcrier shares a powerful message of hope. Our residents courageously step forward to share their testimonies, revealing how Exodus Homes has helped them rebuild their lives.
This is more than just an event—it’s a life-changing experience. It’s a day where love, generosity, and faith come together to make a real difference.
