Missions in Akron:

The Salvation Army Canteen Outreach

By : KATIE SOBIECH

One of the main reasons the Eutopia Report exists is to shine light on area ministries – many of which go un-noticed and unrecognized. There are people volunteering around the clock in the city of Akron, making sure that empty stomachs are filled, that people have clothing on their backs and that their spiritual needs are met.
