“What do you do there?”
“Is there really that much need?”
“Who is welcome?”
These are the questions most often asked about Little Lamb’s Compassionate Ministry Center (LLCMC). As Executive Director, I have answered these questions countless times over the last 21 years, and I will continue to answer them wherever and whenever they are asked.
My first answer is always to invite folks to come experience us in person in Flint, Michigan.
When speaking of Japan’s top tourist destinations, Kyoto is always mentioned. The very word “Kyoto” brings to mind shrines, Buddhist temples, and a city where traditional Japanese culture and architecture are alive.
Kyoto is also home to two public aquariums: Kyoto Aquarium and Kyoto Hanazono Church Aquarium.
In Jordan, several churches are meeting community needs through creative and compassionate ministry.
GARDENS CHURCH OF THE NAZARENE
Tucked into the hills above Chile’s rugged coastline, a small Nazarene church is quietly making a big difference in their community.
“Sometimes all you need is one person to change the world,” says Pastor Lorena Noé.
For children who have experienced displacement and hardship, a stable learning environment provides hope and opportunity. The Church of the Nazarene in Jordan partners with Nazarene Compassionate Ministries to develop schools that serve as a refuge for students seeking knowledge, stability, and a brighter future.
Through the safety and consistency found in these schools, students not only gain academic skills but also find encouragement, community, and a deeper understanding of God’s love.
In one large city in Southeast Asia, the contrast between bustling development and deep-rooted poverty is striking. For many immigrants and low-income workers, the promise of a better life often feels just out of reach, particularly when it comes to providing their children with an education. Amid this struggle, Zion Church of the Nazarene, through its initiative called the "Love Class,” offers a ray of hope to the community. This church is located in a neighborhood rife with economic hardship, drug addiction, and violence, issues that can impact students’ attendance.
