HUNGER INITIATIVE
This year we have decided to focus on Compassion Focus Ministry in Makapur India, Grace Place, Agape Homeless Ministry, and Juarez Comedores/Refugee Assistance. Although the world around us has been drastically changed by the devastating effects of the Covid-19 Pandemic, the need remains more prevalent now than ever. Together we can help fill that need in our very own community and around the world. Will you Feed the Need and fill in the G.A.P? (Give. Act. Pray)
Grace Place
This community center is where some of FBC's already vibrant ministries can meet the community head-on at a deeper, more personal level. At Grace Place, we will share the gospel of Jesus one encounter at a time. Members of our community who may never have walked through our church doors can experience God's love in a personal and mighty way. It will be a place of connection, reconciliation, and nurturing where individuals have the opportunity to restore their relationships with God, self, and others through the aide of the Holy Spirit.
Compassion Focus Ministry
Less that 2% of the massive population of India identify as Christian. Compassion Focus has set up a wide-reaching, multi-faceted organization by digging and maintaining wells, caring for orphans, aiding poverty-stricken individuals by providing them with food, assisting widows, running a Christian school, organizing mentorship for Christian pastors, and evangelizing locals.
Agape Homeless Ministry
Every Sunday volunteers from FBC head down to the corner of 9th Avenue and South Oregon Street to feed the homeless and migrant workers community. We offer not only food for the body but also the soul. We have a mini worship service every week complete with Scripture reading, a sermon, worship songs, and lots of fellowship. We continue to build strong bonds with our 9th Avenue Friends, as we call them, and share the restoring power of a life lived in and for Christ.
Juarez Comedores/Refugee Assistance
Providing food and assistance to people in need in Juarez and to refugees in the El Paso area.
