First Response
This ministry is being designed to care for the needs within the church. Whether it’s a person who is sick, a person in the hospital with a short term or long term illness, an elderly person who needs care, or a family going through a difficult time, the church needs to be there to offer support. This support will be offered in a number of different ways from visitation, to food or provisions, to actual help.
James 2:15-17
15 Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food.
16 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?
17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.
NIV
1 John 3:17
17 But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?
