Our Beginning - Likewise Covenant Ministries was conceived from the word of God which says:
Deliver those who are drawn toward death, And hold back those stumbling to the slaughter. If you say, "surely we did not know this" Does not He who weighs the heart consider it? He who keeps your soul , does He not know it? And will He not render to each man according to his deeds? Prov 24:10 - 12
Likewise Covenant Ministries was born by the prayer of saints on August 6th 2011 among many witnesses and was in the state of Florida registered as a not for profit organization on August 18th 2011.
Likewise Covenant Ministries will carry out its mandate as directed by our Lord Jesus Christ in the parable of the Good Samaritan in Luke 10: 37 from which our name was derived. We will go into the villages and disadvantaged area of 3rd world countries and under served places around the world.
