Brockton - September 20, 2026

Here is an update from the LYNN Ministries team that served on Sunday in the rain.

Have you ever been blindsided by a stranger asking for assistance, usually asking for money, sometimes food and in rare occasions for someone to listen to their plight.

This is the mission of LYNN Ministries, thing is our LYNN Ministries Teams are not blindsided by requests such as these. Our goal is the same as it always has been in God’s Kingdom “when he told us, whoever is generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will repay him for his deeds.” Proverbs 19:17

So on Sunday September 20, LYNN Ministries/The Fellowship Team was in Brockton meeting the needs of people that our God cares for, so much more than we know.

On Sunday we served 105 meals, we handed out over 50 pairs of socks and 37 sweatshirts all donated by Proverbs 19:17 people.

We’ll end with this, today one of our team asked one of the people we serve (a guy) if he would like to pray with him. “He said no, this morning I prayed asking God to meet my needs today and God answered me, he sent you and then he said thank you.” That was one of the many interactions we had with grateful people living on the margins in Brockton. Today our goal was and always is to bring the Hope of God to people living an overlooked life in Brockton.

Pray as you are lead for our Friends in Brockton.

Here are the prayer requests:

Lisa – Recently lost her daughter at age 40. She is heartbroken – they were very close.

Jen - She is experiencing pain all over her body.

Jose – Needs shoes.

Autumn - Her mom passed away in January and she is grieving.

Frances Noel (from Honduras) - He is looking for work in roofing, landscaping, and/or painting.

Andrea – She is dissatisfied with her life situation and health. Her mom passed away recently and she is grieving. She has been in and out of detox and needs strength to resist temptation.

Lisa - She is suffering from a broken leg and seeing a doctor soon.

Three youngsters (12, 13, and 14) - they were out on their own but are clean and nice kids, so they presumably live with parents. One is reading her Bible, another is recovering from hip surgery and is depressed by his physical condition, and another described himself as living day-to-day.

Chris - Her son is in jail. She wants prayer for safety and for him to turn his life around.

James - Wants a better relationship with his mom and general prayer for improvement in his life.

Stacy - She wants prayer for unspecified needs.

Sarah - She is new to being homeless and has a dog. She is trying to cope and find a place to live.
