Comfort Ye Ministry
Many need occur in the lives of the elderly and infirm.
The goal of the Comfort Ye Ministry is to meet as
many of these needs as possible. Many health-care
organizations use the Comfort Ye Ministry for assisted-living
equipment to aid their patients, no matter the
age, in recovery. In order to know in what areas
assistance is needed, we ask that you or some member of the family come to our office, located at
307 E. Jefferson Pike, so that we can talk. From the information
gathered at that meeting, we can more efficiently meet
the needs represented. We want to help all those who
come to have their needs met and get to know a new
friend--Mrs. Shirley Abbott. Mrs. Shirley can be contacted
by calling 615-890-3834.
Many things are taken for granted or overlooked
by those who are well, are badly needed by the elderly
and infirm. Here at the Comfort Ye Ministry we are
always searching for ways to meet these needs.
One way we have found to help is through our food
pantry. We have not only groceries but toiletry
supplies as well. Below are listed just a few of the products
that are available.
- Hand Lotion
- Rubbing Alcohol
- Peroxide
- Shampoo
- Mouth Wash
- Facial Soap
- Food (Canned, frozen, and perishable)
- And many more items
The equipment room of the Comfort Ye Ministry
building contains supplies that are needed by many to
conduct their everyday tasks. This equipment can help
bring dignity to those whose health has begun to fail
them. These items are collected by the Comfort Ye
Ministry for the sole purpose of giving them to those
who are in need. If a problem occurs with the equipment, Brother Ray Abbott will either repair the item,
or the Ministry will replace the mechanical part, at no
cost to the user. The only stipulation put on the equipment is that when it is no longer needed, it be
returned to the Comfort Ye Ministry to be used by another individual.
Available items include:
| Wheel Chairs | Hospital Beds | Canes |
| Walkers | Bedside Commodes | Lift Chairs |
| Bathtub Bars | Reachers | Crutches |
The Comfort Ye Ministry began as a burden that God
gave to Mrs. Shirley Abbott. It is a faith-based ministry
that helps the needy without any cost to them.
This ministry is solely supported by the giving of others.
There are no overhead expenses. Each dollar given
goes directly to help those in need. Any building
expenses are covered by the Heartland Baptist Church.
Bro. Ray Abbott and Mrs. Shirley donate their time,
collecting no salary to do as God has instructed them
to do---help the needy.
