Community of Camden Churches Cold Weather Shelter
C4WS is a coalition of churches across denominational lines
who seek to share the love of Jesus Christ with those who are homeless.
"The King will say: 'Whatever you did for the least of these, you did for me.'"
Matthew 25:40
The American Church in London will continue its partnership with the C4WS Project during the first three months of 2010. For 12 consecutive Wednesday nights we will host 14 homeless men and women from our borough, where we'll prepare dinner, offer comfort and a place to sleep, and serve a hot breakfast in the morning. This is a great opportunity to share your time and presence with people who struggle with meeting their own basic needs, and to be a witness to God's love in your life.
This shelter project is funded already...what we're looking for are volunteers to fill our rosters for the 12 Wednesday nights. To volunteer please contact the church office on info@amchurch.co.uk.
The team at C4WS also helps people find permanent places to live, helping to end the cycle of homelessness. As a part of this work they have created a list of items that make up a Starter Pack for men and women just starting out in their own flats. If you would like to purchase some of these items as a part of your Christmas shopping, you can find the list here.
Join us by sharing one or more Wednesday evenings to participate in the great ministry!
