We are a non-denominational bible based organization that believes in teaching the Gospel
of our Lord Jesus Chris. We welcome all who want to hear the word of God. We believe that
we are all children of God and are brothers and sisters in the eyes of the Lord. We welcome
all regardless of race, creed, national origin or sexual orientation. Our ministry consists of
taking the word of God to the elderly and shut-ins, with a very special emphasis on the youth
and how they can enhance their relationship with Christ.

Christ as described in the Old and New Testaments, to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ as

Then he called the crowd to him and said to them, "Listen and understand; it is not what goes into the
mouth that defiles a person, but it is what comes out of the mouth the defiles." Then the disciples
approached and said to him, "Do you know that the pharisees took offense when they heard what you
said?" He answered, "Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be uprooted. Let them
alone; they are blind guides of the blind. And if one blind person guides another, both will fall into a
pit." But Peter said to him, "Explain this parable to us." Then he said, "Are you also still without
understanding? Do you not see that whatever goes into the mouth enters the stomach, and goes out
into the sewer? But what comes out of the mouth proceeds from the heart, and this is what defiles.
For out of the heart come evil intentions, murder, adultery, fornication, theft, false witness, slander.
These are what defile a person, but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile." Jesus left that
place and went away to the district of Tyre and Sidon. Just then a Canaanite woman from that region
came out and started shouting. "Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David; my daughter is tormented by
a demon." But he did not answer her at all. And his disciples came and urged him, saying, "Send her
away, for sh keeps shouting after us." He answered, "I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of
Israel." But she came and knelt before him, saying, "Lord, help me." He answered, "It is not fair to
take the children's food and throw it to the dogs." She said, "Yes, Lord, yet even the dogs eat the
crumbs that fall from their masters' table." Then Jesus answered her, "Woman, great is your faith!
Let it be done for you as you wish." And her daughter was healed instantly.
From the Book of Genesis 45:1-15
Then Joseph could no longer control himself before all those who stood by him, and he cried out,
"Send everyone away from me." So no one stayed with him when Joseph made himself known to his
brothers. And he wept so loudly that the Egyptians heard it, and the household of Pharaoh heard it.
Joseph said to his brothers, "I am Joseph. Is my father still alive?" But his brothers could not answer
him, so dismayed were they at his presence. Then Joseph said to his brothers, "Come closer to me."
And they came closer. He said, "I am your brother, Joseph, whom you sold into Egypt. And how do
not be distressed, or angry with yourselves, because you sold me here; for God sent me before you to
preserve life. For the famine has been in the land these two years; and there are five more years in
which there will be neither plowing nor harvest. God sent me before you to preserve for you to
preserve for you a remnant on earth, and to keep alive for you many survivors. So it was not you who
sent me here, but God; he has made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house and ruler over
all the land of Egypt. Hurry and go up to my father and say to him, "Thus says your son Joseph. God
has made me lord of all Egypt; come down to me, do not delay. You shall settle in the land of
Goshen, and you shall be near me, you and your children and your children's children, as well as your
flocks, your herds, and all that you have. I will provide for you there ---since there are five more years
of famine to come --so that you and hour household, and all that you have, will not come to poverty.
And now your eyes and the eyes of my brother Benjamin see that it is my own mouth that speaks to
you. You must ell my father how greatly I am honored in Egypt, and all that you have seen. Hurry and
bring my father down here." Then he fell upon his brother Benjamin's neck and wept, while Benjamin
wept upon his neck. And he kissed all his brothers and wept upon them; and after that his brothers
talked with him.
From the Apostle Paul, Romans 11:1-2a, 29-32
I ask, then, has God rejected his people? By no means! I myself am an Israelite, a descendant of
Abraham, a member of the tribe of Benjamin. God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew.
For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable. Just as you were once disobedient to God but
have now received mercy because of their disobedience, so they have now been disobedient in order
that, by the mercy shown to you they too may now receive mercy. For God has imprisoned all in
disobedience so that he may be merciful to all.
The Gospel according to Matthew 15:10-20, 21-28
