Being the Fathers Hands
It is the purpose of Being the Fathers Hands Ministries to be a ministry to churches and other ministries to assist them in having a compassion/benevolence ministry when, for one reason or another, do not have the space or volunteers to have such a ministry in their own buildings. We will act as a conduit of things donated to people of need.
The mission of Being the Fathers Hands Ministries is to help build community by assisting churches and ministries increase their exposure in their communities. Community we define as: "human relationships held together by relational ties, living out a common purpose, through common participation and supplying physical needs to reach spiritual needs." By virtue of the Grace of God placed upon our personal and corporate lives through the Reign of Jesus Christ as Lord, we desire to be faithful witnesses to Him and His Gospel. We strive to work toward this goal through our personal and corporate service, by acting as a conduit, catalyst and a model, in a way that will promote genuine community under the care of God. We will work to aid individuals and families to serve one another. We will work to aid and call our neighbors to use the strength and resources of their community, to bless those who have few resources. We will lead and encourage our community to work together to accomplish their dreams, solve their problems and bless others with their faith and service.
