World Outreach, Inc. is a Jacksonville -based ministry and social outreach to show Jesus' love as we help people develop lives that are more socially functional, economically productive and spiritually abundant.
"Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen: to loose the chains of injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke?
"Is it not to share your food with the hungry and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter - when you see the naked, to clothe him, and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood?" Isaiah 58:6
