 Influence is a core part of who we are at Lamb's; and while we want to influence the world far and wide with the love of Jesus Christ, we recognize that "charity begins at home." To this end, we've raised up a M.E.R.C.Y. team. That stands for Mobile Equipping Resource Center for You! We have two trailers that we load up with bags of groceries, or BBQ euipment, or clothes and household goods, or Bibles, or all of the above, and we head out every 6 weeks or so for outreach to those in need. We often do these outreaches in some of the lakeside campgrounds in Lake Elsinore where fmailies are living in tents, or the main street park in Lake Elsinore. We usually bring a team of 30-40 people to serve a meal, distribute groceries, share God's Word, and distribute clothes or other needed items. This is just part of how we envision God's calling for us to take care of the poor.
