CARING FOR COMMUNITY

Manna from Heaven came into fruition in 2020 using the principles of this Scripture under the leadership of, Bishop Leslie Patterson and Dr. Francene V. Patterson. 

 

"For I was hungered, and ye gave me meat:. I was thirsty, and you gave me drink: I was a stranger, and you took me in. Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison and ye came unto me."

 

Following this example and the teaching of Jesus, we not only come "hands and feet" of Jesus, but seeking to meet the real needs, and showing God's love to all those amongst us. These words of Jesus are a call to concentrate action. These verses of the gospel lead us to the very heart of Jesus Christ's ministry, teaching us to recognize people who are in need.

MATTHEW 25:35-36
