"There will always be poor people in the land. Therefore, I command you to be openhanded toward your brothers and toward the poor and needy in your land."
-Deuteronomy 15:11 (Emphasis ours) 

"...but whoever is kind to the needy honors God."
-Proverbs 14:31 

   JirehScope Ministries takes the command of God to care for the under resourced very seriously. One way that JirehScope Ministries is obeying this command is by helping to distribute the abundant provision of clothing and personal hygiene items that we continue to obtain through the generosity of our donors. Our team then sorts, packages and distributes these items to other ministries in the United States and Mexico, where the clothing reaches individuals in need.  We also distribute directly to anyone in need during our own evangelism and outreach ministries. If you know anyone in need please contact us. JirehScope's boxes are delivered only to ministries and organizations that provide the clothing free of charge to those in need.

JirehScope Ministries partners with Harvest Hands Ministries of Anthony, New Mexico to serve the needy and oppressed people of Juarez, Mexico. Currently, teams partnering with Harvest Hands are assisting with the construction of an Orphanage, Resplandor de Vida, for impoverished children. Additionally, teams participate in meeting the needs of the community through providing door to door distribution of food, clothing, and personal care items, holding vacation bible school programs for the local children, running study and fellowship groups for the mothers/women of the colonia, and sharing the Love of God with the Mexican people.
