The story of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:30-37) gives a clear picture of God’s desire for us to help those in desperate need wherever we find them. After describing how the Samaritan rescued a hurting man whom others had passed by, Jesus told His hearers, “Go and do likewise.” At Denton's Chapel we believe it is part of our mission to follow Christ’s command and partner with Him in service to those in our communities and the communities of our online families. Our goal is to reach hurting people with food, medicine, other assistance and God's love in the Name of Jesus Christ. This, in turn, opens the door for us to share the Gospel, the Good News of eternal life through Jesus Christ.
But serving also does something else... When we serve we grow in the likeness of Jesus and we put ourselves into a place where we can see God do amazing things in the lives of those around us.

How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!" (Rom 10:12-15) NIV
