At the end of Lighthouse Mission's "Back to School" program today. We were blessed to be able to give away more then 400 back packs full of supplies in addition to 40 hair cuts. Best of all each one had an opportunity to hear about Jesus. Thank you to everyone who God used to make this possible.

Excited to be able to bless 150+ under-privileged children today with a back pack full of school supplies- in addition to provide 40+ children with nice clean hair cuts. Best of all- Lighthouse Mission missionaries were able to give bibles to & pray with each person who came today. Thank you Jesus!

Having a fun time with Lighthouse Missions youth Pastor Mike teaching under- privileged children Orienteering in a local park. Kids got their own compass, back pack & lunch & were taught how to navigate in the wilderness using a compass. How neat is that? In addition, we of course showed them the way to Jesus :-)

Blessed to be able to teach a bunch of under-privileged teens on a generous friends yacht how to sail. Then we took some time to have Pastor Jim teach us a bible lesson on Matthew 8:23 -- then off for some pizza. I can't wait to see what God is going to do next.

Lighthouse Missions 1st "Trade Camp" graduation class. Congratulations everyone!

Laugh at a lighthouse mission youth program who sadly don't have so much to laugh about because of the difficult lives they have to live - Many homeless & often hungry blesses my heart. Thank you to everyone who gives of their time & finances to make programs like this possible in the name of Jesus.

Having fun with homeless & underprivileged children at the Lighthouse Mission this afternoon. What a blessing to be the hands of Jesus to these little ones. Thank you to everyone who helps make these programs possible.

60+ homeless & under-privileged children had an amazing time today laughing & playing games at Lighthouse Missions "Wacky Wednesday" 4 way tug of war, dodge ball, snacks & best of all learning about Jesus!

Can you help? What a blessing to have so many kids from the neighborhood coming to the weekly Lighthouse Missions youth programs to have fun, snacks, play games & learn about Jesus rather then get into trouble, gangs, violence & drugs. Howe

ver, the Lighthouse is in need of a good commercial outdoor bike rack for the kids bikes.. We need to raise $800 for -
a rack that can be permanently cemented into the parking lot (so it can't be stolen) & can hold 12+ bikes & locks (these things are expensive) can you help invest into this project? Kids are afraid of getting their bikes stolen.

Had a blessed time today at the Lighthouse Missions Spanish church "Inglasia la MiSion" - baptisms & great fellowship. Pastor Enrique & his wife Lori do a wonderful job leading the church each week from 5-6:30pm .. Come & see.

During today's Lighthouse Mission street outreaches many children were able to get a good nutritious lunch while their parents waited on line for food... Sadly, not all of our 10 weekly outreaches can offer this to the children. Will you consider helping us be the hands of Jesus?

The lines at all of the daily Lighthouse Mission street outreaches are getting longer & longer.. We need food, funds & monthly financial partners.
Please join us in prayer that the "Lord of the harvest will send more workers because the harvest is plentiful but the workers are few"- Jesus

Blessed to have enough food today to share the gospel of Jesus & feed the poor in Port Jefferson, Bellport & Shirley. Please join us in prayer to be able to continue to meet this growing need of more then 3000 each week.

During the Lighthouse Missions youth program today Pastor Jim introduced 15 or so kids to one of the best games ever played in an elementary school - no not a Wii or Ps3, etc... I'm talking old school KNOCK HOCKEY & they loved it.. Somehow Pastor linked knock hockey & a Gospel message about Jesus - we do things a bit different at the Lighthouse ;-)

Pastor Mike teaching the last day of the carpentry Trade Camp at the Lighthouse Mission.. The structure in the back was built by the students, sheet rocked, wired & they even installed a sink.. All for the Glory of God.. Please pray for these young people..I can't wait to see how God will use their new skills! - pastor jim

A homeless many gets blessed with a new pair of much needed good quality boots today at a Lighthouse Mission street outreach. Sadly, many homeless people get used shoes that last them for only a short amount of time they get a new pair of poor quality shoes that also last them a short amount of time.. We are always blessed to have shoes to to put on the feet of needy people.

Lots & lots of kids attended the Lighthouse Missions 1st free Basketball camp. What's amazing is that kids would just walk up and ask to join. A few of the kids were told they could not play until they got rid of their knives! (we could see them clipped onto their pocket & they are in a gang) so they came back later, apologized & dressed to play ball. How blessed are we that we can reach street kids with. The gospel of Jesus?

Long lines of people waiting at daily Lighthouse Mission street outreach for food. Somehow God expanded what little food we had to to give to them & met every need. What's really exciting is that after Pastor Jim preached a brief message about trusting & putting their life in Jesus 20+ people invited Christ into their lives.. How cool is that? God is Amazing! 

While at one of Lighthouse Missions daily outreaches children are blessed to receive a nutritious lunch while their parents wait online for food... Pastor Jim handed out balloons & goodies to the children & made sure to put his hand on ever

y child to bless them in the name of JESUS. How sad it is that there are so many hurting Long Islanders in need & we have so little to offer them.. Please join us in prayer for food & funds..

Volunteer Lighthouse Mission Missionaries pray at the weekly Port Jefferson outreach location after serving the poor. They do this after every daily outreach. What are they praying for? The community, the people & their children, the police

LHM- DOT threatens to close mission

Here is the latest News12 report on the D.O.T. threatening to kick the lighthouse Missions free weekly street outreach outreach out of Port Jefferson Station where they share the gospel of Jesus & feed the poor. Why would they even consider arresting Pastor Jim?

So if you look real close at the line of people waiting for food

So if you look real close at the line of people waiting for food at a lighthouse mission daily street outreaches (such as this video) do you see any problems? What you will see are hurting long islanders- such as the elderly, woman & children receiving food, cloths, cold water & best of all hearing & experiencing the live of Jesus.

Here is an interesting question posted about the Lighthouse Mission.. The funny thing is as I was sharing a message to people waiting on line for food about loving the people who persecute you (words of Jesus) a police car pulled up behind 

me & the officer got out... so I paused & led the crowd of 100+ people in a prayer for the people who want us to stop sharing the Gospel of Jesus & feeding the poor in Port Jefferson station. please pray for us.. - Pastor Jim

LIGHTHOUSE MISSION GETS BOOTED: After 4 years of giving out food and clothing once a week at a Park & Ride in Port Jefferson Station, the DOT has sent a letter to the Lighthouse Mission asking them to cease operations! What do you think about the DOT's request? Do you feel it is fair?

Well, we just received an official letter from the State telling us we need to stop handing out food in the unused DOT parking lot in Port Jefferson Station.. I will post the letter soon. Please keep the Lighthouse Mission in your prayers as Pastor Jim & his team continues to share the Gospel of Jesus & feed the poor in Port Jefferson Station today as we have been doing faithfully for more the 4 years..
