YADKIN CHRISTIAN MINISTRIES

Description

Yadkin Christian Ministries is a cooperative effort of churches, individuals and non-profit agencies unified for the purpose of sharing Christ's love by providing daily necessities to the less fortunate in our community.

Each week, trained volunteers gather at the Yadkinville and East Bend locations to minister to people in need. Food is provided, and assistance with utilities, medicine, and many other necessities of life are made available. All assistance is paid directly to the provider. No cash is distributed to clients. Yadkin Christian Ministries is a place where people can find a caring ear, a shoulder to cry on, and a brother or sister to lean on in troublesome times. Additional possibilities for assistance is available at the Yadkinville office for seniors at least 60 years old who can provide proof of age and need. Bring necessary information to the YCM office to discuss.

Why do we do it? Because Scripture clearly teaches us "Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, "Go in peace; keep warm and well fed," but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? " (James 2:15-16). We feel that it is important to couple the saving message of Jesus Christ with compassion. No one will ever care how much you know until they know how much you care.
