​Welcome

The Works of Mercy Initiative aims to identify those who are most in need and connect them with others to experience Christ's healing touch.
Mission Statement
​“For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, a stranger and you welcomed me, naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, in prison and you visited me…Amen I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did it for me.”   Matthew 25:31-40
May is Mental Health Awareness Month.
