Although we are enjoying the beautiful summer weather, our thoughts are already on autumn: the season for missions conferences! Since its founding in 2006, C.A.R.E. Ministries has faithfully brought the gospel of God's grace to the residents of nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and Alzheimer care units throughout northwestern Pennsylvania and northeastern Ohio. As supported missionaries, we have partnered with many churches and individuals who consider our work important enough to help us financially and with their prayers.
While it is exciting and rewarding to see the enthusiasm residents have for the preaching and teaching of the Word of God, the Lord has put a burden on my heart to do and see more. We are moving forward with a vision to see more C.A.R.E. Ministries established throughout America. Although most churches have at least one nursing home that they visit on a regular basis, our desire is to see a duplication of our ministry of multiple homes visited on a rotating basis.
We are looking to present this vision this fall at missions conferences, and are asking God to put a burden upon the hearts of those who may be interested in such a ministry. If your pastor or church would be interested in seeing our video that one man said "smote" his heart, please contact us at our e-mail address. Who knows if God will raise up someone to catch this vision, as Mordecai said to Queen Esther, "for such a time as this" (Esther 4:14)?
