During a well-attended ceremony held on Sunday 23rd April, 2023 at Wellington Community Center Filed East End of Freetown, the Jesus the Lamb of God Church fed over 820 less privileged residents of the Wellington Community during a well-attended ceremony at the Wellington Community Center Field in the East End of Freetown.
The event formed part of the Church’s 20th Anniversary Celebration and was aimed at reaching out to the less privileged within the community where the church is located.
Speaking during the ceremony, the General Overseer/ Head Pastor of Jesus the Lamb of God Church, Rev. Sarah Vandy (Mrs), dilated on the works of Jesus and how His teachings are being translated into practice by feeding poor and hungry people. She emphasized the importance of giving back to the community and how it is an essential part of the Christian faith.
She was the first to taste the food and ate along with the people present at the feast, a gesture that was well received by the community residents who were happy to see their Pastor leading by example.
The feeding program cuts across religious boundaries, Muslims and other denominations of Christians were served, as it was a clear demonstration of love, unity and togetherness. The church also distributed used clothing to the people present at the event. This gesture was aimed at providing support to those who may not have the means to purchasing new clothes.
The event was a huge success and the community residents were extremely grateful for the support provided by the church.
It is on record that Jesus the Lamb of God Church has been an active member of the community for the past 20 years and has been setting excellent examples for other churches and religious organizations to follow.
By organizing a feeding program and distributing used clothing, the church has shown that it is possible to make a positive impact on the community and its 20th Anniversary Celebration was a huge success with community residents looking forward to more events like such in the future.
