“Abundant Life’s heart of compassion has blessed the community with over 1 million boxes of food in its twenty years of service to the community,” said Operation Compassion director Kelvin Page. “They are one of the largest faith-based benevolence ministries in San Antonio area.”
“When a major freeze hit the area, along with Operation Compassion Abundant Life was able to offer assistance to families that were affected by this once in a generation disaster,” Abundant Life Pastor Eliezer Bonilla stated. “With the help of Operation Compassion we were able to meet the needs of many families during this disaster.”
Bonilla concluded, “As the General Assembly gathered this week, the Church of God reached out to San Antonio with arms of love and compassion to families and needs as the church not only worships, but also ministered to its needy.”
