York Helping Hands

York Helping Hands Outreach was incredible!!

Over 50 people from Harvest Chapel gathered on Sunday the 30th of January to reach out to York’s homeless with warm food, bagged lunches, warm clothing, gloves, hats, scarves and coats. Having spent plenty of time in fasting and prayer over the past three weeks, we were confident that God would show up and show off. He doesn’t have to prove Himself, but He likes to:

Joh 14:21 He who has My commandments and keeps them, he it is who loves Me. And he who loves Me shall be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will reveal Myself to him.

Several times the Holy Spirit would tell me to pray for someone’s health and when I told them that God told me to pray for their health many broke into tears as they were touched by the presence and kindness of God extending His hand to heal them.
Several hundred people and families were fed and received care on Sunday. Many were blessed abundantly. Helping hands of York feeds at three outreach locations every Saturday and Sunday evening. We hope to continue joining other churches in ministering to the people of York.

God keeps speaking to me about His agape' love for people everywhere. We know no greater love than this. That our Lord, Jesus Christ laid down His life for us (John 15:!3)...the least we can do is serve Him (Romans 12:1.) Amen. I hear it again, "Do you agape' me?" Let's say, "Yes, Lord!" Amen.
