Services & Programs

The services and programs that we provide to the residents are the same services that traditional churches provide.

Weekly Worship Services

The Sharing Org provides the residents of the care facilities with a weekly Christian worship service. By doing this we have provided the residents with a Church of their very own where they can worship our Lord. They are able to remain connected to God and their Lord Jesus Christ though regular Christian interaction.

Funeral and Memorial Services

Unfortunately we deal with the passing of many of the residents, and we are asked to provide memorial services. What we are finding is that there is a real need for memorial services as many residentsSaturday, April 10, 2010 service provides closure to the residents who have shared their lives with the deceased for (in a lot of cases) many years.

Birthday Card Program

A simple birthday card makes a person feel special - especially a person who is confined to his or her home and doesn't get many, if any, visitors. This program began simply as a "polite gesture" but it has become more significant as we have learned just how much these birthday cards mean to the residents. One of our prayer partners graciously provides us with hand made birhtday cards which add a special touch of luxury for the residents.

Christian Counseling

Some of the problems that residents are dealing with are quite involved. The residents may not have the chaotic busy lives that the typical person managing a family or job may have, but they do have their own brand of chaos all the same. Reverend John has the unique opportunity to build into the lives of the people he ministers to and is able to pray with them and assure them that through Christ our Lord that God most certainly loves them.

Shoeboxes

Since the inception of the Sharing Org in 2003 we have filled shoeboxes for Samaritan's Purse's Operation Christmas Child. This program is a great way of helping the residents to feel that thay are a part of the world - by doing something that touches the lives of children in need. Early in 2007 the residents were especially thrilled when they received a letter and picture of a couple of children from Pudukkottai India who had received the boxes that they had filled.

The picture to the right is of our daughter getting ready to send a shoebox in 2005.
