AN ONGOING TRIBUTE TO OUR NATION'S FINEST IN JESUS' NAME

Good Evening!

As always, we pray this message finds everyone safe and warm. For those who have fallen on hard times, I pray you will reach out to your local authorities, agencies, or non-profits - especially during the world’s holiday season, when the spirit of merciful giving is more evident.

Help!ComeHome! and our countless sister non-profits are in the middle of one of the busiest world-holiday seasons yet. At times, we cross paths with some of our Country’s Finest. These noble public servants are not only faithful in watching to keep everyone out of harm’s way across America, but many reach out to lend a hand, give a warm smile and hug to thank us, or even share a story!

In every profession there will always be the few bad apples that will try and cast a shadow over the millions that are honorable and true to their selfless post.

We will continue to pay tribute to these shining beacons in every community where The Lord will bring us for His Gracious Work and Cause!!

Below are a few of the heart-warming moments with some of the many, dedicated officers we encounter!! Warm regards to Officer Patrick Kilbreth of Portsmouth PD., Officer Adrienne Costa from the Amesbury, MA PD., as well as Officer McFadden from Newmarket, NH PD.!

May God continue to watch over each one as they continue to lay their lives down for ALL in need of help in times of distress throughout America! (Special Thanks to Officer Kilbreth!! =) We definitely needed a hand the day he jumped in and helped on the home front!)

Stay safe and God Bless!=)

THANK GOD FOR OUR VETERANS!

Good Morning Dear America!

At this time as well as all year long, we give our love, thanks, and gratitude to Our Beloved Veterans!

It is truly amazing to know that before God, we have earthly guardians, young and old, laying down their lives for us and ALL AMERICANS without so much as knowing our names!!

Here at HCH, as we travel in doing this sacred work in Jesus’ Name: whenever any of these selfless souls cross our paths, we always see how we can help. I pray it is the same mentality for all others. Little gestures as well as great, go a long way!

Take Care of Yourself and Each Other!!!


God Bless,

The Team at Help!ComeHome!


A JOURNEY THROUGH THE SOUTH AND FOR THE HOUSTON EFFORT

Good Afternoon!

As always, we pray that this message finds everyone safe and in good health. If you are having troubles, please reach out to your local agencies or even to us. We will help you if we are able and if not, we will try to find a non-profit who can assist you by God’s Grace.

Before the Mission trip to Costa Rica earlier this year, we traveled through New Jersey, Maryland, several of America’s beautiful southern states, and to Houston, to assist in the disaster relief effort following the hurricane and severe weather there.

In every town where we stopped, by The Grace of God we gave a hand to the less fortunate and to sister charities. We also introduced The Lord’s Charity to various DHHS agencies. It was, as always, a very humbling and life-changing journey to be able to help our American family in any way we could and to meet so many wonderful people along the way! Many new alliances and friendships were forged!

Below are some of our journey’s memories! We would fill a book if we were to share all the beautiful memories and photos!!

All the best in Jesus Name,

The HCH Team

GOODBYE COSTA RICA! BY GOD'S GRACE, SEE YOU NEXT YEAR!!!

Our precious time in Costa Rica has come to an end, and it’s a very sweet but sad goodbye as the Mission Team heads back home to America. Every journey here is truly life-changing, no matter how many years we come.

The Team was busy up until the last second! One family needed food and a new bed, while another needed to get their car running and replace a tire so a young dad could get to work.

Also, a warm shout out to a young Minister named Carlos Johnson and his family, who are a backbone to their hometown and surrounding areas in selfless Love for God’s Cause and in helping souls!!! Thankfully they are bilingual!! We Love you all!!

See you next year, God willing!!

BLESSING THE LITTLE CHILDREN OF COSTA RICA!

When it comes to children around the world, no matter what country they are from, we are always humbly grateful to help them. With Pastor Scott’s ministry here in Costa Rica, they know once again that help has come to their weary, hardworking parents and families. Just to see them smile and thank everyone is stunning. They even jump in to help us with a beautiful smile or a loving gaze. Here are just a few of these little Blessings in pictures. Love is such a beautiful thing… :)

Stay Blessed,

Ellie

THANKING PASTOR SCOTT'S COSTA RICA MINISTRY TEAM IN JESUS’ NAME!

Good Afternoon,

This year, the Mission was truly blessed to have a total of 13 volunteers, including a loving and kindhearted dad and his son from Houston, Texas, who had come on vacation in Costa Rica. They heard about the Mission and jumped in with both feet, alongside a local security police officer named Christopher who helps every year with food delivery by God’s Grace!

Special thanks from Scott and Gail to William Graves, Terry Risden, Mark Shelton, Coleen Mayo, Lynnette Nicholas, Kevin Murphy, Thomas Cooper, Sarah Cooper, Eric Mahl, Mike and his son Matt from Houston, Christopher from Villarreal, Jan the local grocery owner (who loves the cause and gave a wonderful donation of a shopping discount and food), and Ellie Mayo (Chairwoman, HCH).

PURA VIDA!!

Costa Rica 2024 by God's Graces

Every year at this time, the Help!ComeHome! Team is honored to join Pastor Scott Shelton and his loving wife, Gail, on a humanitarian mission to Costa Rica in Jesus’ Name.

This year, the needs of the communities here have been greater than ever..We are so humbled to be part of an effort that has assisted over 50 families and counting, including multigenerational households, babies, young children, and toddlers. It is an effort made possible by the faithful efforts of these 2 Pastors, who have, and continue to carry the banner of selfless LOVE of GOD in their hearts.

Scott wasn't sure if he could make the trip this year because of a severe stroke he suffered last December. He was barely able to talk at the time, but by God's Graces he is on his way to a full recovery. When the people here ,who just respect and hold him dear to heart saw him, they were just so grateful that the same God he spent years teaching them about, had pulled him through this fiery trial ! The hugs and reunions were full of joy!!

We are fortunate to be here, to experience the beauty of this people and culture, to witness the power of Love to transcend all barriers, and to make a difference in the lives of those who truly have nothing. Here are some memories from our journey so far, and it's not even over yet! Our next post will be a shout out to all of Team members who helped in this gracious cause!! Pura vida!;)

REMEMBERING OUR SILENT HEROES OF AMERICA IN JESUS NAME

Good Evening America,

Here at Help!ComeHome!, our only hope and wish for this day is for every Veteran who has gone on to Heaven or is still walking this earth to be remembered every single moment that you find yourselves enjoying the freedoms of living in America’s borders.

When any of these Precious Ones cross your path, please be mindful. A warm smile, a thank you, giving them a hand or any help at all goes a long way!

Why? THEY are the REASON under God why we are afforded the freedoms that we have, and at times, have taken for granted!

They’ve lain down their lives for countless, in this country and regions beyond, not knowing any of the names or faces of whom it is they were fighting to protect! That is the unspoken definition of the character of The Lord Jesus.

We can only pray that those who are among the living will be remembered NOW and always in a MEMORIAL DAY EVERYDAY.

Take Care and Be Safe,

God Bless, The HCH Team



CHARITY UPDATE!

Good Afternoon America!

I pray that this message finds each and every person well. I know there are those in great sorrow and despair reading this, and to each of you we send our love and prayers. As always, if we can help in any way, we shall, and if we can’t, we will point you in the direction of an organization who can.

It’s very troubling that diseases, especially cancer, seem to be now running more rampant than any other time in history. The charity has had to remain in New England and revise our Agenda to visit and help many sick here at home, visit senior centers in Maine and Massachusetts, and attend funerals of loved ones from NH to NYC.

We have been able to help out locally with our “On the Go” pantry on Mondays and Thursdays, as well as partnering with a local charity to help our Seacoast area citizens. Here is some of the mission work in a few pictures.

God Bless and Take Care

INTO THE WORLD'S NEW YEAR BY THE GRACE OF GOD

Good day to our American family,

As always, we only pray that this message finds everyone safe with a roof over their heads and food on the table. We know times here in America have become very difficult and many, more than ever before, are struggling to make ends meet. Before these times, most were able to live within the boundaries of a steady income. Now, with the same income, many are in what seems to be a free-fall. Also, many folks are being replaced by robots in the crafts and jobs they went to school for!

Thank God for all of America’s unsung heroes across this nation that selflessly give their time, prayers, efforts, and funding to help out the less fortunate.

Here on the shores of this Hope, we try and do the same whenever and wherever the duty of Love cries out.

Here are a few of our labors in The Lord in Vermont, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and NYC! (We will do a separate post for all the organizations and businesses we have partnered with that quietly and selflessly help countless souls in peril without ceasing.)

Humbly sending love and prayers,

The HCH Team

MLK DAY IS EVERYDAY IF YOU HAVE THE NATURE AND CHARACTER OF JESUS

Thank God for all of the days on the roman calendar in which Americans are led to take a minute to reflect on the humble selfless acts of men who have changed the course of history through persistent, peaceful love. Is this not the nature and character of The Christ in His walk and mission? Today and everyday we at HCH have this mind and heart as we go forward with His cross in His footsteps.

We are bowed in gratitude for MLK and all others like him who dared to be a Daniel and stood up against the evils of any society that diminished the civil, God-given rights of any human and who stopped wicked men dead in their tracks. Bravo!

Take care and stay safe,

The HCH Team

HONORING OUR SELFLESS VETERANS EVERYDAY!

Good Afternoon America!!!

Thank God for this time each year. Somehow, it inspires others to open their hearts and give like no other times in the year.

Many of these precious souls who rightfully receive this mercy are Veterans… It’s beautiful to honor the earthly guardian angels who have fought for our freedoms WITHOUT EVEN KNOWING ANY OF OUR NAMES.

Here at HCH, we honor them every day along with any PUBLIC SERVANTS who lay their lives down on a daily basis!! This weekend, we send our love and anything we are able, to our beloved Veterans!!

As we walk into the future, it is with much thoughtful prayer for those in need, near and far. It seems that homeless populations have doubled all across the nation; and, with the incoming souls from other countries seeking a better way of life, it is heartbreaking!!

The work of this charity and all others has become very serious because when families can’t get full help from the mainstream charities, they seek out the smaller organizations. It’s a sad situation that doesn’t seem to have a resolve in sight!! We only pray that wherever you may live, if you find you have a little extra, please help out your local non-profits and charities. Every little bit helps.

God Bless,

The Team At HCH

YEARLY COSTA RICA MISSION JOURNEY!

Good Afternoon!

We can only pray that life is treating everyone well. For those who are going through anything at all, our prayers and love go out to you and your families. Please call if you need a hand, and if we can’t help directly, we will search for an organization who can.

For over 21 years and counting, Pastor Scott Shelton and His beloved wife Gail have selflessly, with a wonderful Team handpicked by them through thoughtful prayers, have brought The Love of The Lord Jesus to a most destitute region in Costa Rica. This area has some of the warmest, most grateful and kindest souls you will ever meet walking the face of this Earth!

Help!ComeHome! is humbly honored to be a part of their Mission Team. This year alone, their Team was able to reach over 70 families and individuals with prayers, clothing, food, non-perishable items, sewing classes, car repair, Sabbath gatherings and dinners, and special Vacation Bible School and Plays for the children! Some just needed a warm hug, a shoulder to cry on, and aL listening ear!! (Thank The Good Lord for GOOGLE TRANSLATE=-) )

A very humble, gracious, and warm thanks to Karen Howe Ruhl of Farmington, NH and Darla and Paul Bogart of Northwood, NH for their generous donations to help feed 10 families and in bringing much needed water to 15 families!! They have also quietly given help at home in America as well!! Much Love to them!

Below are some of our precious memories in pictures!

Stay Safe and Godspeed!!

A warm regard for Allen Ramsay, Mark Shelton, Coleen Mayo, Terry Risden, Michelle Impey, Lynnette Nicholas, Karen Howe, and Ellie Mayo, our Chairwoman.

UPDATE! =-)

GOOD MORNING AMERICA!

We pray this message finds most safe and in good health. For those dear souls suffering hardships of any kind, our hearts and prayers go out to you. Please let us know if we may be able to help in any way possible or point you in the direction of an organization who can!

The Lord’s Charity, HCH, has kept quite busy in these recent months with our ongoing Water Project, visiting the terminally ill in NY, taking intakes and Crisis calls, traveling to give a hand wherever needed, advocating for the disabled and sick, visiting the elderly at Senior Homes, running our Pop-Up Pantry as needed, and hosting dinners for souls who just need a smile and a hug. Below are some wonderful, heartfelt memories and the beautiful Public Servants who have a truest brotherly love in their hearts as they work!

(A Special Thanks to Mark Shelton, William Graves, Michael Damour, Karen Howe, Allen Ramsay, Tony Peppers, Coleen Mayo, Michelle Impey, Lynnette Nicholas, Sarah Cooper, Holly Kirkendoll, and Ellie Mayo, our Chair.)

Take Care and Godspeed

A TRIBUTE TO AMERICA'S FAITHFUL OFFICERS! AMEN.

We here at Help!ComeHome!would like to take a moment to give special tribute to some of the most wonderful heroes that not only defend and protect, but help solve problems and go out of their way to give a helping hand as did Officer Perez of The New London Connecticut Police Department as we loaded water to deliver to the New London Community Meal Center recently!! God Bless our Selfless American Watchmen and Women! The few bad examples within their ranks will NEVER OUTSHINE the goodness of the MANY before God. We have been kept safe and had secure passage by these Warriors as we have traveled back and forth across America doing this Sacred Work in Jesus Name for many years now!! Here are some of our best memories!!

God Bless and Be Safe!!

PARTNERING WITH SOME OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIVING AND LIFESAVING ORGANIZATIONS IN JESUS' NAME!

We were so very blessed to partner with such amazing non-profits and wonderful team leaders From New Hampshire, Maine, and the Portsmouth High School District to aid families through their Holiday season. Here are a few our many precious memories!!

WARM THANKS AND APPLAUSE TO THESE SPECIAL MANAGERS WHO ACTUALLY SERVE THEIR COMMUNITY WITH THEIR HEARTS BY HEAVEN’S GRACES!!

We have special thanks to give to the Portsmouth A.C. Marriott, the Residence Inn, and their gracious Catering Event Manager, David Steady, who allowed us use of their Conference Room. They have a very warm and wonderful team!

We offer a host of humble gratitude to Costco of Waltham, MA;

to Amelia, Cassie, and Peter of Hannaford in Portsmouth, NH;

to Denise Mahoney of Hannaford in Dover, NH;

to Melissa Meatly of Shaws in Dover, NH;

to Sonny Sukduang of Hannaford in Exeter, NH;

to Tom Mckilip and Robin Bison of Hannaford Durham, NH; and

finally to Peter Lamar of Shaws in Stratham, NH.

Without these amazing Managers’ aid, we wouldn’t have been able in part to provide turkeys and other special items in our baskets for all of the families, not only for Thanksgiving but also their upcoming Holiday Season!! We are all truly blessed to have these silent guardian angels in our communities!!

Stay Safe and God Bless!!

PORTSMOUTH HOLIDAY AID IN FULL SWING BY GOD'S BLESSINGS!!!

Good Afternoon America!

Our Hope is always for the best towards our American family. We know that these last two years have been tough on many, and it’s truly hard making ends meet. It seems like now, more than any time in the years gone by, those who are more fortunate are sincerely even making more of an effort to help those who need a hand. It’s been truly amazing.

Here at Help!ComeHome! we were able to assist 60 families throughout Rockingham and Strafford Counties as well as in Portsmouth High School (and counting!)

Here are some of our precious memories in pictures! God graced us with a most wonderful Team of Volunteers! It takes very special people with selfless hearts to do this kind of work. From start to finish there’s a lot that goes into the man hours of shopping, picking up donations, getting an adequate space, setting up, getting enough boxes, actually making up the baskets, setting up delivery times, cleaning up, and then final delivering, which is AWESUM =-) So beautiful to behold the gratitude of all who received these Baskets made in Love.

Special thanks to Terry Risden, Mark Shelton, Michael Damour, Coleen Mayo, Kevin Murphy, Lynn Nicholas, Renee Anderson, Allen Ramsay, Kimmy Sullivan, Dawud Seagers, Karen Howe, Michelle Impey, Rossine Mayo, Antonio Peppers, Elisha Mayo, Holly Kirkendoll, LaRae Cantave, Josiah Mayo, Sarah Cooper, Evon Cooper, and our wonderful Chairwoman, Ellie Mayo.
