The message of James 1:27 is clear: “Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.” It’s a message not only to focus on spiritual things, but also to act on behalf of justice for the weak and oppressed.
Pure Action is Buckner International and your church living out the call of James 1:27 to minister to the orphan and widow. We seek dynamic church partners to invest in reaching the underserved and vulnerable in Jesus’ name.
Pure Action is a way for your church to:
• Collaborate with Buckner to provide community ministries, social services and mentoring programs.
• Get engaged with a domestic or international Buckner ministry that meets your congregation’s passion.
• Engage in local ministries to children and families through volunteerism and support. Consider starting a foster care or adoption ministry or a mentoring program through your church!
• Go on a mission trip custom-designed for your church group either domestically or internationally to areas served by Buckner.
• Participate in a collection like Shoes for Orphan Souls to provide children and families with desperately needed humanitarian aid, clothing or food.
To learn more about the ways your church can get involved, please contact us today at pureaction@buckner.org or call 1-800-442-4800 x808050.
