PiN Ministry

Who Can Visit?

PiN Ministry serves people experiencing homelessness in the Virginia Beach area. If you're living outside or in need, you're welcome to come in during service hours. PiN is a Christ-centered organization that welcomes everyone without judgment. To learn more about services or get help, you can call (757) 962-3567 or email info@pinministry.org.

Good to Know

If you're currently living outside, you can stay for up to 3 hours during service hours. If the space gets full, they may ask you to limit your visit to 1.5 hours so others can come in too. Essential services are open Monday through Thursday from 1 to 4 pm, and on Saturday from 12 noon to 3 pm. Hot meals are served every Sunday from 12:30 to 2:30 pm inside the PiN office. All services are at 1164 Miller's Lane Suite A, Virginia Beach, VA 23451.

Food & Essentials

PiN provides a hot meal 6 days a week for those sleeping outside. Every Sunday afternoon, a hot meal is served from 12:30 to 2:30 pm, and dining is available inside for those sleeping outdoors.
