Reaching out to those in need

 

The purpose of Brothers Keeper Outreach is to share the love of Jesus Christ with people in need, as they offer temporary assistance for physical needs.  The strategy of this ministry is to join together churches, organizations and individuals who sense this like mission of reaching people with "cups of cold water" for Christ.

 

"Inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren the King will answer and say to the Assuredly, I say to you, you did it to Me." - Matthew 25:40

 

Brothers Keeper Outreach is a Christian benevolent organization that shares the love of Jesus Christ with people in need.  They offer assistance with food and clothing.  There are many in the community who are in need of help that are going through difficult times from layoffs, single parent families and the working poor.

 

This ministry formally opened in July 1995, by joining together churches and organizations sharing God's love, compassion and making a difference in the lives of the people in our community.

 

Their future goal is to not only assist with the physical needs but to share the Gospel of Jesus by having a time of fellowship, prayer and Bible readings and studies.  There is a "Mission Field" here in our own community by reaching out to others.

 

A farmer went out to sow his seed.  As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path. - Luke 8:5

 

Sow the seeds of love, friendship, empathy, and helpfulness.  These hardy seeds take root in the crustiest ground. - Barbara Johnson


If you would like to make a difference in the lives of the people in our community, we encourage you to be a part of the Lord's ministry and join the Brothers Keeper Outreach team....

Your generosity will be a blessing to the families they serve....

They welcome any help and support.

Please keep this important ministry in your prayers.
