We are a community of Disciples of Jesus Christ that invite you to come and learn the Bible. When Jesus the Christ was training His disciples by being the WORD of GOD manifested, He also demonstrated His love and compassion by healing the sick & feeding the hungry. “That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we looked upon and have touched with our hands, concerning the word of life— the life was made manifest, and we have seen it, and testify to it and proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and was made manifest to us” (1 John 1:1-2). Our mandate is the same that was received by the early Disciples from Christ Jesus. We have been taught the Word of God by the Holy Spirit that we now demonstrate by serving our City in preaching the Gospel, feeding the poor, clothing the naked & healing the sick (John 13:15). Our world is currently in chaos, the Holy Spirit of God is awakening people from their complacency and calling them to be Disciples of Jesus Christ. Forsaking all by picking up their cross to live a crucified life (Galatians 2:20). Shiloh Ministries has received an anointing from Jesus Christ to make Disciples and to send Disciples domestically and to the foreign soils of the world (Matthew 28:18-20, Mark 16:15-18).

Here at Shiloh Ministries, we have guidelines that you are required to commit to for community living. Originally from our founding year of 2000 we offered the LORD’S Ministry at Shiloh specifically to men that were enslaved to substance abuse. But recently we believe the LORD has revealed to us that HE desires for Shiloh to be assessable to all men who desire to be a Disciple of Jesus Christ. So whether you are enslaved to substance abuse or at war with your flesh to say no to the seduction of this world. This only produces the carnal man to be in control, which is futile. Shiloh Ministries is here to disciple you in how to walk and be led by the Holy Spirit (Gal.5:16).
