Volunteer works-WMSCOG




Members of the World Mission Society Church of God working in the South Street area

Members of the World Mission Society Church of God have worked with local councillors to clean up areas surrounding South Street, Rochdale.

The group met on Wednesday 21 August to clean rubbish from the area and many local residents came out of their homes to help. Mayor Peter Rush also attended the clean up to support the volunteers.

Members of the Church have cleaned up through the whole of Greater Manchester and have cleaned areas such as Rochdale, Trafford, Salford, Bolton, Bury, Oldham, Tameside, Stockport, Wigan and Prestwich. The group plan to go everywhere that they can make a change.



The clean up campaign hopes to inform people of the seriousness of environmental issues.

I give thanks to Heavenly Mother’s love

I sometimes feel Heavenly Mother's love and sacrifice 
through common daily life
Whenever I feel her love I do not forget saying thanks to her
Here is a letter of one of sisters from Church of God






I give thanks to Heavenly Mother’s love
On the train, there was a middle-aged man sitting on the opposite side of me.
Exhausted face, deep wrinkles, skinny figure in a shabby clothes…
He really looked fatigued.
Just by seeing him made me think, “Our lives as sinners are tough, but is it really tough like that?”
He had his reasons.
The people’s eyes were fixed to the man’s son.
His age supposed to be young with spirit.
But being mentally challenged, the son was into his own world, and his father was holding his hand.
Suddenly, my eyes welled up.
Though the father looked so exhausted, his face brightened up whenever he saw his son.
Smiling as if he had gained the whole entire world, I could sense his love and sacrifice.
All those years that she has spent, day and night, praying with tears without rest to save me.
Enduring all mocks and scorns she would just embrace my illness in a time of pain.
However, this immature sinner’s eyes were covered with sins, and I couldn’t realize Mother’s sacrifice or know Her love.
Oh my Mother!
Though She is spending all those years with pain, She would always show bright smiles in front of Her children.
Mother’s great and holy love and sacrifice blossoms my heart with repentance.
And I pray to You…
If this child lets go of your hand, please hold my hand back with compassion.

ATLANTA (CBS46) -
Marietta Mayor Pro-Tem Johnny Walker, County Commissioner Joann Birrell, retired City of Marietta Assistant Chief and Fire Marshal Scott Tucker and 155 volunteers from the World Mission Society Church of God participated in a day of cleaning and beautifying Marietta on Sunday.
The effort was initiated by the church to help clean the world on a global scale, including South Korea, Canada, South America, Europe, Asia, Oceania, and Africa.
"It felt great to help clean up the creeks that flow into the Chattahoochee River and being able to work with the wonderful staff and volunteers of 'Keep Marietta Beautiful,'" said Hector Flores, church overseer for the WMSCOG.
According to a release from Keep Marietta Beautiful, the church was looked to for help improving the look and safety of Custer Park, Birney Park and the surrounding areas of the Marietta Power location in the creeks and drainage areas.
The volunteers removed litter and debris from three creeks, picked up litter from surrounding neighborhood streets and sidewalks and removed litter and debris from the creek area near Marietta Power.
"The City is grateful for their work to improve and beautify our City. The giving of their congregation's time and efforts is a mission that benefits the citizens of our City," Mayor Thunder Tumlin said.
Joan Ellars, director of "Keep Marietta Beautiful," said that members of the Church of God removed 4 tons of junk from the creeks and surroundings, including shopping carts that were left throughout the neighborhood, 55 tires and other miscellaneous household items.
According to Flores, the World Mission Society Church of God volunteers were overjoyed to share love with the people of Marietta and are looking forward to a continued partnership with the people of Marietta to make the city and the world a cleaner place.
