RALEIGH, N.C. - ncarol.com -- "We take Jesus at his word: 'Whatever you do for one of the least, you do for me.' This is the mission statement of Christ's Church at Moore Square."

For the past 18 months, this small church of volunteers has passed out food and water, purchased new clothing items, prayed with and for those Jesus called the "least of these."

"We believe that Jesus meant for us to do for others what He did for all who came to Him: feed, care for, comfort, heal, help, teach, and encourage," said a spokesman for the church. Each week these disciples of Christ worship outside the walls of "church," ministering to people the way Jesus did. "This 'participation worship' is a form of gathering where everyone is engaged, heard, seen, and valued as a person made in the image of God," said the church director of communications.
