The Shepherd’s Shadow
(My Emanuel is no longer in need of funding to support the web based ministries God has entrusted us with. If the Lord has laid it on your heart to support My Emanuel, partner with us in prayer and provide your tax deductible donation to one of the two 501c3 charities listed below)
There is one shared purpose in which every single child of God shares: being like our Saviour Jesus. Shepherd’s Shadow is the My Emanuel outreach mission for our brothers and sisters in need down the road or around the world. God has given us a purpose, to make Him known throughout the world and one of our greatest tools is providing for the needs of the “least” of our brothers and sisters. Jesus reminds us:
…”Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me“. (Matthew 25:40 ESV)
According to sources*, 2.6 million children die each year from hunger related disease. 7123 children a day take their last breathe because of disease caused by hunger. 296 children an hour. 5 children a minute. There is hope for these children and those who struggle with hunger and other tragic truths of poverty: you. Jesus commissioned the church, every member of it, especially you and I to not only provide for the spiritual needs of our brothers and sisters but their physical needs as well. Jesus reminds us:
…”They need not go away; you give them something to eat.” (Matthew 14:16 ESV)
You mat not see a way you can help make a difference but as the disciples learned as Jesus fed 5000 with only a few fish and few loaves of bread, we must remember: through Jesus there is always a way. By His mercy, by His grace, and by His love we can bring hope to the hopeless. Will you join My Emanuel and commit to become a part of the Shepherd’s Shadow? Please be in prayer for how you can help our partner ministries all around the world. Each month My Emanuel will partner with confirmed Christ centered ministries both locally and internationally so that you may provide both prayerfully and physically as the Lord provides.
