A Message of Compassion<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n

“We know people are in need of<\/em> help, both spiritual and physical, so we are working hard to serve the community,”<\/em>\u00a0 said Pastor Heleno Luiz, who, together with the Night Angels volunteers, draws motivation and encouragement to reach those in need of God\u2019s Word from the following passage:<\/span><\/p>\n

When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.<\/em> (Matthew 9:36)<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
