Missions at John Calvin Presbyterian Church
"For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.
Whatever you did for the least of these, you have done unto me..."
-Matthew 25:35-36, 40
