Founded in 1994 by Ed and Reva Wren, the purpose of the Tabernacle was, and continues to be, to reach out to the those who are stuck in life controlling problems and hopelessness – with the Hope of Jesus. Their intent is to walk beside them, helping them to become mentally sound, emotionally balanced, socially adjusted, physically well, and spiritually alive.
Originally, the vision was outreach to outlaw motorcycle gangs, but that quickly expanded to outreaches to the homeless, those coming out of a lifetime of prison, gangs, substance abuse and addictions, or other life controlling problems.
Their ministry includes various street feeding programs, Christian 12-step, a yearly camp out with other like ministries, a church service twice a week, weekly bible studies and a men's discipleship program.
