The Joseph Storehouse

The Storehouse occupies part of the old Barnsley Hall site,and serves as a main collection centre, gathering in aid, in the form of clothing,household goods,toiletries, medical supplies etc from about 30 locations all over the UK.

Goods are sorted and packed ready for shipment, a container load at a time, as they are able to complete a 20 pallet consignment.

These shipments are delivered to The Joseph Storehouse international aid centre operating in the Judean Hills just outside of Jerusalem.

The Joseph Storehouse freely provides aid to the poor and needy people, both Jewish and Arab, living in the nation of Israel today. Many of them are struggling as orphans and widows, homeless and handicapped, senior citizens and geriatric patients as well as new immigrants and victims of terrorism and their families.

The goal of Joseph Storehouse is to be a source of emergency assistance to the entire community of Israel, whether Jewish, Arab or Christian, a channel of God's love and mercy through the distribution of a full range of items such as emergency medical equipment, food, toiletries, clothing and other necessities.

The Joseph Storehouse also warehouses supplies for times of emergency in the land of Israel. A number of CCM members have helped in the past, with specific calls for work days at Bromsgrove. And there is always an opportunity for more volunteers. Could you spare some time in the week to help with this work? With your extra help in sorting and packing of goods for shipment, aid can reach Israel sooner, meeting the needs of so many people in very needy situations.

http://www.visionforisrael.com/ will tell you more about this work, and I do recommend watching the video report "Touching Lives" which you can view from the website.

Please give this important work some thought and prayer, and if you have any questions or you are interested in getting involved, please speak to me any time.
