Encanto Community Health and Resource Fair

Posted

The annual Encanto Community Health & Resource Fair sponsored by Encanto Southern Baptist Church at 6020 Akins Ave., San Diego, Ca. was held on Saturday, October 26, 2019. This Out Reach event provides an opportunity for the community to have their health concerns and spiritual issues addressed.

There were more than 150 people in attendance.  Free resources and health screenings included flu shots, HIV vaccines, eye, dental, and TB screening, mammograms, breast exams, children’s fingerprinting, and much more.

 The ESBC prayer ministry booth and clothing booth were very busy. The prayer team was busy praying with individuals and families for their various needs. Tracts were distributed and Bibles were made available to all. Hundreds of clothing items and shoes were given away for both children and adults. One lady expressed how bad her family needed clothes and thanked God for what He provided that day. Another lady expressed her appreciation for the vision screening her son received. She believes this is why her son is doing so poorly in school.

 As always the party trailer is one of our favorite Outreach tools to bring people together for relationship building, food and fun!  Just the smell of popcorn popping brought so many people together in an atmosphere where the Word of God was shared.
