"I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me." Matthew 25:40

React to Others Needs Through Sharing and Loving Service

The Metro Church values the belief that God expects all believers to respond to the needs of others through loving service. 1 John 3:16-18

Because we value the Lord's love shown to us, we seek to follow his example by expressing love in practical ways. Romans 5:6-8; 1 John 3:16; 4:10

We believe that a mere belief in love or loving others with words alone will not be enough on the last day.
Matthew 25:31-46

We also value caring for fellow believers as this sends a clear message to the world that we are disciples of Christ. John 13:34,35

We share the love of Christ by genuinely caring for others. Local help (benevolence) at Metro is organized to benefit both our church and our community through such ministries as

• Florida Blood Center (Bloodmobile at Metro approximately every two months on Sunday mornings)
• Christian Sharing Center
• Accept Pregnancy Center
• Mount Dora Christian Home and Bible School
• Meals for the sick
  If you know of someone at Metro who is having surgery or suffering from an illness or who has had a new baby or suffered a death in their family, contact the church office so that meals or other help can be given to the family. Also contact the office if you would enjoy taking a meal to a family.

"Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, 'Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,' but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead ." James 2:15-17

"The Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ranson for many." Matthew 20:28
