Manna Communities Services Ministry is the social concern outreach ministry of RLS. Through practical assistance to those in need, MANNA aims to visibly demonstrate Christian love to the local community as well as to provide an opportunity for members of RLS to become involved in impacting society through Christian service.
OUR VISION
To provide spiritual hope and practical assistance to those in need as a visible expression of the love and compassion of God in a fallen and broken world.
To impact the society around us through our Christian service and be a channel for God's transformation of our community.
To provide a means for RLS members to become involved in Christian social outreach and to grow in their Christian walk.
The focus of MANNA is on the local community close to RLS and in the Klang Valley generally, but also elsewhere in Malaysia as the needs arise.
The core focus is on specific projects that are selected with a view to longer term sustainability whereby impacted individuals are transformed into self-supporting and productive members of society. Core projects include financial assistance and personal follow-up support. Assistance is also provided for emergency requests.
Reaching the poor and needy is a direct command of God to Christians. Deut 15:11 says, " I command you to be open-handed toward the poor and needy." It is not an option for us.
For this purpose, the Manna Ministry is set up to provide physical assistance and spiritual hope to the poor and needy as a visible expression of God's love and compassion in a fallen and broken world.
Helping the poor and needy goes beyond dropping an occasional dollar for the street beggar to salve our conscience. Giving the poor a packet of rice will not go very far either.
What is required is a wholistic commitment not only to help them out of their current difficulty but also to be self-reliant in being "able to fish for themselves".
To do this, we need financial resources and volunteers.
Income for MANNA comes from individual sponsors, from the corporate sector, and a proportion of the RLS tithe. We also have fund raising events such as the Manna Charity Bazaar. This annual bazaar provides good quality second hand items donated by RLS members for sale at low prices to those less financially able, thereby helping the local community as well as generating income to support MANNA projects. Particular care is taken to ensure that the financial assistance provided through MANNA is accounted for and that aid-dependency on the part of the recipient is avoided. (Back to top)
