Matthew 25 Ministries is an international humanitarian and disaster relief organization with headquarters in Cincinnati (Blue Ash area). They help the poorest of the poor and those in need because of emergency. The name is taken from the Bible verse in Matthew 25: 34-40
Then the King will say to those on his right hand, "Come, you whom my Father has blessed, take as your heritage the kingdom prepared for you since the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you made me welcome, lacking clothes and you clothed me, sick and you visited me, in prison and you came to see me." Then the upright will say to him in reply, "Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? When did we see you a stranger and make you welcome, lacking clothes and clothe you? When did we find you sick or in prison and go to see you?" And the King will answer, "In truth I tell you, in so far as you did this to one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did it to me."
It is a wonderful organization as best I can tell. Their headquarters building is not far from where I live. I passed there the other day and was struck and impressed by the large sign above the front door. SERVANTS ENTRANCE
