About

Our mission is to link the church of the first world with the church of the third world in a manner that helps both the materially poor and the poor in spirit. (continued on schedule o).the materially poor are served by local churches, clergy, and LAY leaders who have been empowered and supplied with goods by food for the poor. The poor in spirit are renewed by their relationship with and service to the poor through our direct ministry of teaching, encouragement, and prayer. Ultimately, we seek to bring both benefactors and recipients to a closer union with our LORD.

In care of RAY Berrett
