"He who is kind to the poor lends to the Lord"
We truly believe we can see Jesus in the face of the poor. Jesus said, "When we do such things to one of the least of these, we are doing it to [Him]." It is also His example to us of feeding thousands of people, not only caring for their physical needs, but their spiritual needs as well. That motivates us to "go"! Not only have we seen people fed, but prayed for, healed, and given other helps as well. Our Food Distribution Administer is Michelle Flynn, and she can be reached by calling the church at (845)227-7832.

Servant Evangelism
"It's the Lord's kindness that leads you to repentance"
We feel that the best way to "preach" Jesus is to show His love by serving others. We do this by performing random acts of kindness that often relieves people of something they need to do, but have yet to get to. We will also give away various items for free, we know people want or need, just to show them God's love in a practical way. Not only will we come together as a church at various times to do this, but each of our Home Groups as well will go out and serve together. Whether serving by doing, or giving away something, and all for free, the question is inevitably asked, and that is...why? We are more than happy to explain,'yes you do get something for nothing...Jesus Christ paid for you!'

"Jesus said...It is not the well who need a doctor but the sick"
From time to time we like to go to one of the local city parks for a two hour picnic at which everyone is invited. We bring our bands to entertain, face painters to decorate children's faces, balloons to give away,and grills to cook burgers and hot dogs for all who come by. It's an awesome sight to see balloons flying all over the park, and people who didn't know each other, come together for two hours on an afternoon.

"Go into all the world..."
As a "Missional Community" it is our desire to see the Gospel of Kingdom, shared to those who have not heard it. We have already been supporters of those who have been in Lebanon, Haiti, and other areas. Thus far we have had individuals on short term mission's trips to Romanina, the Domincan Republic and Haiti. We are now in a long term commitment in the Dominican Republic, in a cooperative effort with the Northern New York Vineyards. Louie helped start this effort, with the vision to plant a movement of "La Vina" churches in the DR to bless God's ever expanding Kingdom there.

We have a group of people who are dedicated to seeing the "Good News" of Jesus Christ spoken into the lives of those now behind bob-wired fences. These loving and kind souls give up their time to come alongside youth who are now serving time and in great need of compassion.

CMA
Putting together our love for Motorcycles with God's love for people
We have a group of CMA'ers (Christian Motorcycle Association) members who attend our church. We love to ride, but we also like to reach out to people, and God let's us do both at the same time! Each year our riders organize a number of "Good News Rides" to local hot spots, particularly those frequented by other motorcycle enthusiasts. CMA is an organization with a missional focus to the hurting and disenfranchised of this world and we gladly support their ministry. If you love to ride check out this website for the local CMA chapter. Ezekiel's Wheels Also check our photo gallery Ezekiel's Wheels Photos
