Faith in Action Fighting Abuse
Binghamton ministry focuses efforts on helping young people to grow in image of Jesus

While most people pass through the Binghamton area during the hustle and bustle of everyday life, Eikon Ministries and its staff members have permanently planted themselves in that part of Midtown.
Each staff member has vowed to make a change in this Memphis urban community and help it become a springboard for global impact.
Eikon Ministries, Eikon being the Greek word for "image" or "likeness," was founded by Roy "Soup" Campbell in 1997 and is based on Romans 8:28.
"We are in the business of helping young kids grow into the image of Christ," says Campbell. "To help people be like Christ."
Campbell, who played baseball for the University of Memphis, became a Christ follower in 1983. He immediately began to share the gospel with others.
After spending much time in the Binghamton area, he wanted to see more fruit in the lives of those that he ministered to. To build that leadership, Campbell founded Eikon Ministries. Campbell runs 1,500 volunteers through his ministry each year.
Eikon offers many programs including sports, block ministries, youth summer workshops, weekly outreach, Bible studies, leadership and mentoring. Each program focuses on evangelism and discipleship.
One requirement for Eikon's staff is that they live in the Binghamton area.
Linda Campbell, Children's Facilitator and Campbell's wife, works side by side with her husband supporting Eikon. "Being here and working out in this community gives us great joy," said Linda. "We used to live in Frayser. We prayed about it, and God said to move here."
Linda volunteers with Lester Elementary School and Lester Community Center. She helps lead a program at the school called Integrity Time which focuses on character building, and also has a program called Little Princess which promotes learning life skills.
Campbell believes the future is bright for the kids in this area. He partners kids from the suburbs and private schools who may not have faced the challenges these kids have, yet want to give to back. "People can use their gifts and talents to invest in these kids," said Roy. "As we go, we ought to be affecting people. My goal is to build an army of ambassadors."
