Whoever shut his ears to the cry of the poor will also cry himself and not be heard. Proverbs 21:13. Our welfare ministry is established in order to meet the needs of the needy ones and to take care of the widows both in the ministry and in the society at large. “Pure and undefiled religion before God is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble….”James 1:27, 1 Timothy 5:3-16.
