“What good is it,
my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has
no deeds? Can such faith save him? Suppose a brother
or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one
of you says to him, ‘Go, I wish you well; keep
warm and well fed,’ but does nothing about his
physical needs, what good is it? In the same way,
faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action,
is dead.” (James 2:14-17)
Well Of Life’s Care Ministry
is, as the name suggests, a ministry of caring for
those in need. It’s a practical ministry that
seeks to help by giving of our time and resources
– be it food, clothes or other forms of aid
and by developing friendships, so that those in need
can experience the love of Jesus Christ.
As followers of Jesus, we are instructed
to help the poor, the sick and the otherwise needy.
Paul says, “In everything I did, I showed you
that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak,
remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said:
‘It is more blessed to give than to receive’”
(Acts 20:35).
But we must give in love; we must
give from our hearts; we must give according to our
means, beginning with our brothers and sisters in
Christ; and we must give prayerfully, as the Lord
directs us. In doing so, we have the privilege of
demonstrating the Father’s love to those who
may not know him.
Well Of Life’s Care Ministry
is in keeping with the word of God, helping those
within the church where there is a genuine need. In
the wider community, we help a Dubai women’s
shelter with fresh fruit and other food items donated
by members of the church through the Home Groups.
If you would like to be involved
in this ministry, in line with what Jesus has asked
us to do, contact us.
