​​​​Christian Service Program

"If a brother or sister has nothing to wear and has no food for the day, and one of you says to
them "Go in peace, keep warm, and eat well," but you do not give them the necessities of the
body, what good is it? So also, faith of itself, if it does not have works, is dead." 
                                                                                                                          (James ​2:15-17)
