Streetlight

Keep on loving each other as brothers and sisters. Don’t forget to show hospitality to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it! Remember those in prison, as if you were there yourself. Remember also those being mistreated, as if you felt their pain in your own bodies.

Hebrews 13:1-3 (given to David Dixon by Ps Billy Williams)

Who We Are

Streetlight turns up every Monday night (rain, hail, shine or COVID-19) at the Rotary Park in Carseldine to provide hope to any member of the community who needs it.  We offer a hot beverage, a delicious and nutritious meal, and a listening ear along with other necessities like bread/bread rolls, clothing, blankets/sleeping bags, emergency hampers and prayer.  Most importantly we show everyone that they are a valued member of our Streetlight family who is loved by God.

To love people back to life through the love of Jesus; to see the unseen.

Our Identity

We are part of Bridgeman Baptist Community Church.

We are an empowering organization.

We are a healthy family.

We are accountable and people of integrity.

We are holistic transformers of people’s lives.

We are promoting the great commission of our Lord Jesus Christ.

 

“Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the creation of the world. For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home. I was naked, and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison, and you visited me.’

“Then these righteous ones will reply, ‘Lord, when did we ever see you hungry and feed you? Or thirsty and give you something to drink? Or a stranger and show you hospitality? Or naked and give you clothing? When did we ever see you sick or in prison and visit you?’

“And the King will say, ‘I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!’

Matthew 25:34-40 NLT
