Homelessness is not always a choice but oftentimes a way of life because of financial problems, medical issues, addiction, mental stresses, or spiritual oppression. Many of them carry the memories and pain that entrap their lives.
Jesus’ call to minister to the “least of these” includes various different needs. For Acts of the Holy Spirit Ministries International, one of our calls is to the homeless, or street people.
Gone were the days of nervously trying to avoid eye contact with those holding signs at the intersection. Instead, we sought out people to help, and we learned that was really what Jesus called us to do.From the beginning of Christ’s ministry on this earth, He stretched His hand to the poor and hurting. The calling from God upon our lives has led us to the streets in search of hurting people. Along the path we found people hungry and perishing from this earth with no one to even care. How can we ignore the needs of others and fail to offer something to eat or a kind word in the Name of our Lord.
We encourage you to partner with us and see the needs of others and ask God to prepare our hearts and lives to continue the present day ministry of Christ upon this earth.
Our call from God has led us into the streets to share the Gospel of Christ to a lost and hurting world. From years of experience and the teaching of the Holy Spirit, we have taken the gospel in hope to reach this world for Christ, as we prepare ourselves for the greatest harvest of souls that this world will ever seen.
In Montego Bay we have been having ‘real church services’ near the centre of the city on Corner Lane since 2006. We start at 2:00pm and we give a hot meal at the end of each service along with a drink. Thanks to partners like Drummond’s Catering.
