In The Community
“For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.” – Matthew 25:35-40
The Outreach Committee at Bethel Pentecostal Church exists to plan, implement and mobilize the congregation to reach out in the local community through practical acts of kindness, demonstrating God’s love in action and to meet the physical and spiritual needs of our community outside of the walls of the church.
