As Good As New Campaigners Mums and Special Kids (MASK) Storehouse

Phil 2: 14 & 15 "Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe."

"As Good As New", is a star, a light deep in the heart of our community helping lead people to the place where they can find Jesus! An outreach from The Ulster Temple Elim Pentecostal Church from which all the proceeds go to aid mission and local community projects.

Harry, the shop manager says, "People come in for more than furniture, they come in for prayer. We give away Bibles and people are aware this is an outreach from the church." One member of our community helped by the shop wrote a letter thanking "the church for coming into the community".

Through various Government schemes people get valuable work experience, helping them in their progress from welfare into work. The fire that is reflected by Harry and the team at "As Good As New" is one that people warm to and aren't burnt by!

If you would like to help us bring warmth and God's light to our neighbours we are always in need of good quality furniture, electrical goods, bric-a-brac and books for resale in our store. We would be very grateful for any such donations.

So if you can help, please don't hesitate to contact Harry.

"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God."

2 Corinthians 1:3-4
The basis on M.A.S.K

M.A.S.K is a group for mums whose children have special needs. It was birthed in the hearts of two ladies (Denise and Pauline) who have children with special needs.

Whether your child is young or old, whether they have a learning disability or any special need, you could benefit from M.A.S.K.

We meet once a month in the coffee lounge of the Ulster Temple, where we are blessed with brunch, and where we have found a place to be able to share our ups and downs and truly remove our masks, around women who understand what it is like to be a mum of a special child. See photo below.

Mission Statement:
“To Commit Indiscriminate Acts Of Kindness”

 

We try and achieve this in a variety of ways, one of which being our Christmas hamper appeal. For the last 6 years we have gave out hampers to families and individuals in the local community.

On average we give out approx. 80-100 hampers each year. We also try and include toys to the homes with children. This is one of the most enjoyable and rewarding parts of the year for us as a Church and one in which the local community is fully involved, either by receiving a gift or by donating to the appeal itself.

Another area that is of great importance to us is sponsoring pupils at local schools. In the past we have been able to help towards the purchase of uniforms, school photographs and swimming lessons. We do this with the full support and knowledge of both parents and teachers.

Storehouse also works alongside domestic violence groups in the city. We help residents in the rehousing process with transport and assistance in decorating/furnishing their new homes.

Throughout the year we work with local groups and organisations to try and make a difference in local peoples lives and the issues that affect them.

 

Below are some of the groups and organisations we work with and support.

- The Bridge

- Sydenham house ladies refuge

- Ravenhill adult centre

- Mornington project

- Nettlefield Primary school

- PSNI Williowfield and PSNI domestic violence unit

- Lower Ravenhill Community??

- Contact youth (youth counselling service)

 

Our motivation for all of these activities is simply to show in a practical way that God is interested in the lives of ordinary people. There is no hidden agenda and no strings attached, they are what they are “indiscriminate acts of kindness”.

A practical outreach supported & funded entirely by the congregation of the Ulster Temple.

Our aim is to help local people with their everyday needs.
