Serve One Another
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.’
“Then the righteous will
answer him, ‘Lord, when did
we see you hungry and feed
you, or thirsty and give you
something to drink? When
did we see you a stranger
and invite you in, or
needing clothes and clothe
you? When did we see you
sick or in prison and go to
visit you?’
“The King will reply, ‘I tell
you the truth, whatever you
did for one of the least of
these brothers of mine, you
did for me.’
Matthew 25: 35-40
, ,
What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no
deeds? Can such faith save him? Suppose a brother or sister is without
clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, “Go, I wish you well;
keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about his physical needs,
what good is it? in the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied
by action, is dead. James 2: 14-17

SEEKING VOLUNTEERS
All Heart is Seeking Hospice Volunteers
All Heart is seeking warm, caring people interested in
offering care with a particular religious
tradition or visits to those who have similar religious views and need
additional spiritual support.
Volunteers would work with their Chaplain, and could make as few
as one visit, one call a month to a
hospice patient of their choosing.
Volunteers in hospice find it personally gratifying,
intellectually stimulating, and emotionally
meaningful to assist those in need at a critical point in their lives.
Why should someone consider becoming a hospice
volunteer with All-Heart?
•
Because hospice volunteers do rewarding work!
•
Because patients and their families depend on volunteers as
part of their hospice care. By attending to the needs of both
patients and their loved ones, volunteer support are a huge
comfort for the family during a difficult time.
•
Without the efforts of volunteers, hospice could not continue
its important work.
•
There's a lot to be gained from being a hospice volunteer
•
Satisfaction from making a difference in people's lives, and
receiving their gratitude in return.
•
Greater self-knowledge from insights gained from these
relationships.
•
Spiritual growth from supporting a person through the process
of dying.
•
Greater self-knowledge gained through supporting people in
crisis.
If you are interested in becoming a hospice volunteer, or if you
would like to know more, please contact Amy Kelly, Volunteer
Coordinator with All-Heart Home Health & Hospice at 757-961-0049
or you can email amy@allhearthomehealth.com.
SEEKING VOLUNTEERS
Opportunities to
Serve the Homeless
Living in Cars
There are 15 to 20 car bound
homeless individuals and families in
one location of Chesapeake that need
your physical help and prayers.
We are looking for churches
and individuals to volunteer to help
feed the homeless living in their cars.
Numerous churches are
already involved in the “Adopt--Lot”
program, but more are desperately
needed in order to reach out and
serve so many who are hungry.
Additionally, volunteers are
asked to scount areas throughout our
Chesapeake neighborhoods where
we can start serving more homeless
persons. Send the information to
Marva Benson, New Light Church,
2418 Cedar Road, Chesapeake
23323. Her cell phone is 757-535-
7193.
