The Salvage Yard Church of Jesus Christ is a church that grew out of the ministry of Steiger Minneapolis beginning as a Bible study designed for unchurched, atheist, and agnostic young people. It has grown into an eclectic community of believers that seeks to rescue and restore broken people for Jesus and release them into a life of serving him. The Tuesday night worship service which meets at Oliver Ministry Center in the Phillips neighborhood of Minneapolis is accessible for unbelievers but designed to allow people to connect with God in worship (various styles), in the Word (currently studying the Sermon on the Mount), in the people, and through prayer.

For the past 6 years the Salvage Yard has been going to Mardi Gras. Why? To talk to people about Jesus and be a light in a dark and difficult party atmosphere or New Orleans.
“People come from all over the world to get away with all kinds of sin or satisfy their pleasures right before Lent,” Sarah Allen, missionary to Mardi Gras writes. “I guess it's kind of a twisted theology that people adopt just so they can do what feels good.”

The Traveling Jesus Kitchen (TJK) has been reaching the counterculture around the country. Now they will add two new members to their caravan. Ben and Teresa Pothier will join the convoy to help provide food at local, regional, and national New Age Festivals , and to show the love of Christ and the truth of who He really is.
The vision of the Pothiers as voyageurs began with a journey. God brought Ben on a journey, he says, through “heart break, struggle, sickness, wonder, healing,” and seeing God move miraculously at the New Age Festivals. God was teaching Ben and breaking his heart for those who have no idea of God’s love.
