“For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me...”

– Matthew 25:35-36

At The Link Church, our Operation 25 Outreach Ministry is driven by a deep desire to live out the heart of the gospel. Inspired by the words of Jesus in Matthew 25, we are committed to meeting both the physical and spiritual needs of those in our community.

OUR MISSION

The mission of the Link Church Operation 25 Outreach Ministry is to fulfill Matthew 25:35 -36 by providing nutritional meals for the needy, supplying clothing when needed, offering pray and support for those in rehab facilities, and nursing homes/communities, and visiting those who are incarcerated. Our desire is to be used by God to impact our community.

OUR PURPOSE

The Link Church’s Operation 25 Outreach ministry’s vision is to share the love of the Lord by being his hand and feet in our community. We desire to use the gospel of Jesus Christ to show that God sees, and he cares. As our Jehovah Jireh, he will always provide.
