Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this:
to look after orphans and widows in their distress and
to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.
James 1:27
Our Mission
To strengthen and expand the impact of the Gospel of Jesus Christ among Chinese immigrants by lovingly providing services that correspond to the felt needs in that community.
The Dorcas Ministries evolved from the Dorcas Fellowship which came into being with the love of God in the hearts of the late Mr. and Mrs. Yu Man Wan. The Godly couple started making use of the lunch break in a grament factory in Chinatown in NYC to reach out to the workers. They taught the workers basic English vocabulary as well as introduced them to the gospel of Jesus Christ. They cared not only the workers but also their family members.

In 1990 the torch was passed onto Grace Mo from the Long Island Abundant Life Church and in 1994 Rebecca Lee from the Chinese Bible Church of Maryland joined the ministry. By the grace of God, they had opportunities to serve in ten factories in different format and the number of believing workers gradually rose. Both sisters Mo and Lee saw the need to plant a church for these believers.
