Since 2004, we have been meeting the needs of countless individuals and families. It began with Reverend Celeste and a few others sharing what they had to the needy in the community. This has grown into a continuous supply of almsgiving. As the Lord provides, each week at our Wednesday meetings there is often a sharing of monetary donations and items, including food, clothing, shoes, baby items, furniture, and household supplies. We also help individuals who have lost their jobs, single mothers, the elderly and disabled, and those in difficult circumstances. This happens as the Lord leads us. We send barrels of goods to other nations in need as well. During our mission trips to other nations, we transport suitcases filled with various supplies which are distributed to the poor on the streets or in the churches we visit. Among the countries we have helped are Brazil, Nigeria, Haiti, India, and Greece. We have been so blessed to serve our Lord in this way! During the recent epidemic, many women in our ministry cooked meals and delivered them to families who have lost loved ones, and who have lost their source of income, as well as the lonely and elderly. In addition, we have provided groceries for families in need throughout Long Island and Queens.
