Dennis McCourt: Serving the Homeless
March 19, 2011
Over the past winter, a number of churches have joined together to provide food, shelter, and encouragement for the homeless in the Oakhurst area. Dennis McCourt has helped to organize the outreach, and will present various aspects of it in this session.
Our Lord was moved with compassion. Compassion is a compound word with Latin roots. ”Com” means together and “patti” means passion or suffering, “together suffering”. Jesus was moved by compassion to suffer with us so he could ultimately eradicate evil and suffering. We, as cross bearing disciples, are called upon to follow in Jesus’ foot steps. Dennis will be sharing about an opportunity here in our community to let Christ be manifested in His people as the compassionate Savior/Deliverer that He is. The door of outreach Dennis will be discussing is “Full Circle Homeless Shelter”.
Dennis invites you to come “suffer together” with him and listen to his presentation. He promises it will not be too painful!
Dennis McCourt is a self described “ignorant and unlearned man who has been with Jesus”. He is a prophetic evangelist and independent businessman who resides in Oakhurst along with his wife of 25 years and their two children. He is affiliated with Life Links International which is a worldwide apostolic network of churches. Dennis has done international evangelistic outreaches in Africa, Haiti, China, El Salvador, and Mexico. For years Dennis has lead teams into San Quentin State Penitentiary several times a year to do cell to cell evangelism and to “do church” in the Garden Chapel within the walls of the prison. Currently Dennis is helping spearhead a cooperative homeless shelter called Full Circle Family Outreach in the Oakhurst area. This is a joint effort involving several churches that open up the doors of their church on a rotating daily schedule. Most importantly, he has a passion for Jesus and His Body and is seeking to see God’s Kingdom come in ever increasing measure upon the earth.
