What are your gatherings like?

First, we must understand church is not a building, a Sunday school class, or a service time. According to scripture, a church gathering is a group of people coming together in Christ and the people are the church. Jesus shows us in Matthew 18 that a gathering can be as little as two people together.

What happens when I visit?

The service usually involves the singing of hymns, reading of scripture verses and possibly a psalm. If the church follows a lectionary, the sermon will often be about the scripture lections assigned to that day. Eucharistic churches have usually Holy Communion either every Sunday or several Sundays a month.

There are no rules as to what to bring to church, other than your self, an open heart and mind. Some bring a bible, if you’re going to engage in bible study.

If you want to know how to dress for church, something modest and comfortable should be fine. Generally, graphic tees that show off sports team logos or bands should never be worn to church. Solid-colored tops are fine, and even something with a pattern should be OK to wear.

Can I invite people to come with?

Ask your friends if they have a place to worship the Savior and invite them to come worship with you, especially at times like Christmas and Easter. If they aren’t Christians, ask them if they’d like to learn more about Jesus Christ and invite them to experience a Christian worship service with you. Remember to show the same respect for their beliefs that you hope they will give yours.

What if we didn't answer your question?

There are many questions Christians are asked that the individual Christian is unable to answer. It happens all the time.

Medical Outreach – Shining Light Kingdom Builders

Welcome to Medical Outreach Ministry!

In a minimum of three times in a year, we organize free medical clinics in rural and underserved areas of Abuja, focusing on displaced communities facing harsh living conditions. These communities often lack basic amenities like running water and electricity, making daily life a significant struggle. Through these clinics, we aim to bring relief, hope, and essential services to people who need them most.

The Reality of the Communities

These rural areas in Abuja, home to displaced and underserved families, endure extreme challenges daily. Without access to basic utilities or proper healthcare, residents often suffer in silence. Through our clinics, we aim to bridge the gap and bring much-needed support to these vulnerable populations.

Comprehensive Medical Services

Our clinics are staffed by dedicated doctors, nurses, and healthcare professionals who provide free medical consultations and services to residents. From treating illnesses to conducting general wellness checks, our medical teams work tirelessly to address immediate health concerns and improve the overall well-being of the community members. We also distribute essential medications and provide health education, empowering residents with the knowledge to maintain healthier lifestyles.

Donation of Food Items

Recognizing that good health starts with proper nutrition, we distribute food items to families during these clinics. These donations are carefully selected to provide sustenance and nourishment to the children, adults, and elderly in these communities. By addressing both medical and nutritional needs, we strive to create a more holistic impact on their lives.

Clothing for All Ages

In addition to medical care and food, we bring along donations of clothing for children, men, and women. These items are given freely to help protect against harsh weather conditions and restore dignity to those who lack adequate clothing. Seeing the joy on the faces of families as they receive new clothes is a powerful reminder of the difference these small gestures can make.

Serving with Compassion

Our volunteers are the heart of these initiatives, bringing their time, energy, and compassion to serve these communities. Whether helping to distribute food and clothing, assisting with patient registration, or simply offering a listening ear, their contributions create a warm and welcoming environment for the residents.

How You Can Help

The success of these clinics depends on the generosity and support of people like you. Whether through donations of clothing, food items, or financial contributions to help cover medical supplies and logistics, your support can make a tangible difference in the lives of these communities. Together, we can extend God’s love through acts of service and kindness, transforming lives and bringing hope to those who need it most.

A Call to Action

As we continue this mission, we invite you to partner with us in this labor of love. By contributing to these clinics, you’re not just providing material support; you’re giving families the gift of hope, dignity, and a chance for a healthier, brighter future. Let’s work together to create lasting change in these communities.
