THE RADIO BROADCAST MINISTRY

In an effort to spread the good news of Jesus Christ and to make known the wonders of His goodness, Butler Street engages a weekly non-sponsored radio broadcast over Radio Station AM 1010 WGUN.  The broadcast is known as “The Showers of Blessings” broadcast ministry and airs each Sunday afternoon at 4:00 p.m.  Its reach is beamed to 182,000 listeners within a thirty county audience around greater Atlanta. The broadcast features a service of Butler Street with Preaching by Pastor Alford, guest ministers or member of the ministry team and music from the church. The broadcast is delayed by one week.
 

THE MINISTRY OF PUBLICATIONS

The Ministry of Publications is a means of communicating to Butler Street and beyond, inform, inspire, encourage, and enlighten our Church Family and friends.  We do this through our Newsletter (News From The Street), Lenten Meditation Booklet, Special Event Publications, Pastor’s Perspective, Pentecost, Prayer and Fasting Guide and other materials as they are developed.

 

TAPE MINISTRY  

Obeying the command of our Lord Jesus Christ, “But when the Holy Spirit comes to you, you will receive the power. You will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all of Judea, in Samaria, and in every part of the world.” (Acts 1:8) It is our mission to obey this command, and to make available to all, the Word of God through audio tapes.

THE TIMOTHY HOUSE   

Timothy House was established in 1998 in partnership with Grady Homes Neighborhood Council by Pastor Alford, Cook Elementary School and Butler Street C.M.E. Church to provide support for academics, social growth and nurturing for children attending Cook Elementary School.
 

The program is designed to assist students in grades K¾5, in reading comprehension, reading vocabulary, mathematics, social studies and computer skills.  The program year operates for the entire school year.  Butler Street CME Church provides the facilities, staffing, meals and transportation to and from Grady Homes.

 

It is the goal of The Timothy House to assist students of Cook Elementary School in their efforts to meet curriculum requirements, increase their social growth and the development of the whole person. 

 

THE SCHOLARSHIP MINISTRY 

The Scholarship Ministry is designed to reward and financially assist those active members of Butler Street Christian Methodist Episcopal Church who are high school graduates that plan to attend post secondary institutions.

 

This ministry was initiated in 1982 through Le Centre Cercle, Butler Street C.M.E. Church.  This ministry was financially supported by Le Centre Cercle and was named the LCC Scholarship Fund.  As time passed, this ministry was expanded to include the entire Butler Street Church Family.  The month of May is designated as Scholarship Emphasis Month.

 

Since 1982 more than $74,000.00 in scholarships have been awarded to deserving high school graduates.
 

THE D.L. HOLLOWELL FELLOWSHIP  

The Donald L. Hollowell Men’s Fellowship’s purpose is to promote the development of positive Christian images and life styles for young black males ages 8-18; to provide mentoring, guidance and Christian living.  This is done through a number of structured activities. 

 

The other purpose is to provide support and ministry to the special needs of men.  The fellowship meets monthly throughout the year and is named for long term Butler Street member and famed Attorney Donald L. Hollowell.
