John 3:16 Samaritans

‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brethrenyou did it to me.’ – Matthew 25:40

The Lord Jesus spoke about helping those in need very often. He spoke these powerful words about caring for them – 

"...for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see thee hungry and feed thee, or thirsty and give thee drink? And when did we see thee a stranger and welcome thee, or naked and clothe thee? And when did we see thee sick or in prison and visit thee?’ And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me."

As Christians, we have been called to give, serve and love those in need, in a way that we are giving, serving and loving Christ Himself. 

That’s exactly what we want to do at John 3:16 Samaritans. We want to seek God’s heart and care about the causes that He cares about, love the people that He loves, and show mercy to others the way He has shown mercy to us.

We have partnered with individuals and organizations that have dedicated themselves to serving the poor wholeheartedly. We invite you to explore this page, by praying about the causes that God has put a burden in your heart for, and by giving generously to one or more of our partners mentioned below, in a way that we can witness God’s mercy extend to all those who are in need.
