The Bible teaches us about caring for widows, the elderly and our brothers and sisters in general. It is the responsibility of all of God’s children to care for those who are in need. The welfare department’s focus is to fulfil this requirement by giving support to those who are in need, this includes visiting people in their homes to give them an encouraging word or by counselling or mentoring.
We take this aspect of the ministry very seriously, that we are indeed our brothers keeper.
