Compassion Ministry
Compassion Ministry: Compassion [noun] the humane quality of understanding the suffering of others and wanting to do something about it. (eLook)
The purpose of this ministry is to share the compassion of Jesus Christ with our community.
Our mission is to give a voice to those outside the CrossWay family, in our community and surrounding area, who do not have one and to encourage Action-Oriented Compassion. "Do everything in love" 1 Corinthians 16:14 (NIV).
Compassion Ministry Scriptural Foundation: "Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world" (James 1:27). "For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in. I needed clothes and you clothed me. I was sick and you looked after me. I was in prison and you came to visit me" (Matthew 25:35-36).
