LOVE with Us & SERVE with Us
"By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another."

John 13:35
Ponder the following story from Mark chapter 2:  One day Jesus was "preaching the Word" in a home. Four men have carried their paralyzed friend all the way from his home to this house believing that if they brought their friend to Jesus that He would heal him. However, they can not get inside the house because of the huge crowd of people. What do they do? They do not give up and walk away discouraged because of the great crowd of people, instead they persevere in faithful determination to lay their friend at the feet of Jesus. The four men climb up onto the roof of the house and literally dig through the branches, sticks, mud, clay and tiles until they make an opening in the roof that is large enough for their friend to fit through. They then lower their paralyzed friend down through the hole in the roof and lay him at the feet of Jesus. When Jesus saw "their faith," He told the paralytic "your sins are forgiven...rise, pick up your mat and go home." The man immediately got up and walked home. Everyone was amazed and glorified God. Do not miss this! Jesus heals the paralyzed man because of his friends faith! Notice what Jesus says to the man- first,"your sins are forgiven" and second, "rise, pick up your mat and go home." In response to the faith of the four men, Jesus executes all power and authority to eternally heal this man! First, and most importantly, Jesus heals the man from the spiritual sickness of sin that has separated him from God; and then, he performs a visible miracle of healing to reflect the invisible miracle of healing that has just taken place, and He heals the man's paralysis. What is the end result? "Everyone was amazed and glorified God." God is glorified! Just like these four men of faith, we at Abiding Hearts Home Care want to break through all that stands in the way of people seeing Jesus and coming to Him. We want to bring people into the presence of Jesus where they can find eternal healing and hope. Will you please join us in bringing the all powerful love of Christ to those who are sick, elderly, widowed, alone, hurting, helpless and in great need, for the glory of God?

widows advocates (1 Timothy 5:3 & 5:5)

#1. Pray for them and visit them regularly
#2. Lead them in Bible study, prayer and devotion regularly
#3. Send them cards and treats
#4. Prepare a meal for them 
#5. Share Holidays and Birthdays with them
#6. Raise money as a family to financially sponsor their care each month through Abiding Hearts Ministry
#7.
Participate in a service day when your widow has a big need that requires a lot of helping hands
#8. Help them take care of their home and yard
#9. Look out for health care or social needs that they have


This is a wonderful opportunity for families to serve together. It provides a very practical way for you to disciple one another & to nurture each other's hearts to reflect the Defender of Widows and the God of all comfort. Be creative: send pictures or crafts with your monthly letters, have a bake sale or a lemon-aid stand or let your children earn money around the house to help raise money to take care of the widow.
Remember that most of these people have no family or they have families who are not involved in their lives. They are lonely and forgotten, and in most cases we will be the only other people reaching out to them.

#1. prepare a home-made/made-with love meal

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....whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.
Matthew 25: 35-40
