We recently welcomed an amazing woman to our fellowship who is living outside in Allentown. Asking for nothing, only sharing her strong faith in the Lord and rejoicing in His constant protection and provision, she shared with us her first hand experience of homelessness and the struggles that our sisters and brothers face RIGHT NOW. There have been numerous instances of towns and cities slashing tents and bulldozing the camps where the homeless are living. It’s unconscionable. Access to resources is getting increasingly difficult with the government shut downs and increased bureaucratic “red tape”. We believe charity is the primary responsibility of the Christian and of humanity - that we ought not depend on the government or a 501c(3) to care for our brethren appropriately. That is why our grassroots fellowship, with no political, governmental or public assistance or dependance, is raising money and taking donations to deliver directly into the hands of those in need. We’ll be going into the known areas where the homeless populations of our community gather and live to meet their immediate physical needs as well as to minister to their hearts and souls through fellowship and the sharing of God’s love through His Word.
