Good morning family 😊. As the religious services page is reforming. I am seeking three volunteers to assist with mentoring individuals with special needs (someone to talk to concerning relationship issues, a friend.).

These volunteers will be added as admins to the page. We will hold weekly chat discussions concerning any issues that may arise to ensure we assign the best battle plan to assist that individual seeking guidance.

The page is already building a relationship with a wonderful women's empowerment page ran by Pat Cepero (PhD candidate at Walden's University. Ms. Cepero also holds both Master's n Bachelor's degree's as well in Human Behavior.)

All volunteer applicants should message me to be added to the list. Program begins in September, date to be determined.

Thank you,
Minister Pino.

Scripture 9 My views on same s*x couples
Good morning everyone. Today’s topic is a very sensitive one that may make certain individuals upset due to the fact that they disagree, and the verses may make certain individuals very happy due to the fact that they believe in what they were told to be true. We all know what the bible says about same s*x couples. Today I am going to post some verses on the subject that have been in the bible since it was written. Now these verses may be taken as offensive to some of you but, I want you to understand that I am giving the writings of the bible to those that don’t know them. Also, I want you to understand that as a minister I have to speak the true feelings that come from my heart. But that information I will give you later on in the service.

The bible states from Romans 1:26-27 For this reason, God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.

In Leviticus 18:22-24 it states You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination. And you shall not lie with any animal and so make yourself unclean with it, neither shall any woman give herself to an animal to lie with it: it is perversion. “Do not make yourselves unclean by any of these things, for by all these the nations I am driving out before you have become unclean (Lie with an animal is a given even I feel that is wrong. But had to post it because it is part of the verse, my apologies).

But the bible also speaks about how love is God. In 1 John 4:16 it states So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.

Now don’t get me wrong I’m not going against my bible, but you have to agree that that verse says it all. The question that I would like to ask is What Would Jesus Do (WWJD) in these times where the thoughts of same s*x marriages are being recognized? Man loving a man, woman loving a woman is still love. What difference should it make love is love? A love between a same s*x couple is just as strong as the love between a heteros*xual couple. May even be stronger because in the beginning they had to go through so many trials just so they can be recognized. In New York State’s 2011 Marriage Equality Act also gives same-s*x couples the right to marry in New York State and provides them the same rights, responsibilities, and benefits under State and local law enjoyed by opposite-s*x couples (ag.ny.gov).

I believe that God wanted it this way. God moves us. Provides the knowledge that we need in order to get pass those rough times of gay bashings, condemnation, and persecution.

It also states in the same book of Romans 13:8-10 Owe no one anything, except to love each other, for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law. For the commandments, “You shall not commit adultery, you shall not murder, you shall not steal, you shall not covet,” and any other commandment, are summed up in this word: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore, love is the fulfilling of the law. This verse also proves that it’s all about love.

So, if Jesus was alive today do you think he would condemn a homos*xual couple if he saw how beautiful they treated each other, or how strong their love was for one another? I don’t think so. If Jesus took a walk to spread his word today in the west village area of Greenwich Village, I’m pretty sure he would have a great time. He will see that a gay couple are just two people who love each other so much that they are one with themselves, and that they have love for the lord Jesus Christ. That what Jesus is looking for when it comes to marriage. The basic principle is LOVE. So, my feelings are this. I love God, I love my family, I love all that are reading this today, and I love my significant other. I truly believe in same s*x couples as long as they are faithful and true to each other. That they do not abuse each other physically and mentally because these violations will definitely remove you from your seat with God at his dinner table. If you love someone and you want to share the rest of your life with that person; well I would be glad to help in any way in bringing those individuals together.

I’m going to tell you a testimony as to why I disconnected from my prior house of God. In this Christian church there was a young gay individual who has been a part of this church’s youth ministry for quite a while. Dedicating all of his free time to assisting with church functions he always did what he was asked of by the church pastor, and was faithful to the lord. He always showed up for bible study on Wednesday nights, as well as every Sunday service until one Sunday when the pastor decided he was going to do the service concerning same s*x individuals. I couldn’t grasp the fact that as the pastor was speaking, and me being an usher seeing this poor defenseless God-fearing individual sitting there amongst the other teenagers in his youth ministry crying his eyes out. I just imagined the hurt he felt as the man that he looked up to for guidance was practically crucifying him at that moment. That to me was unjustified. Why would a man of God continue to speak knowing this teenager was being hurt from the inside out? It didn’t make any sense to me. So, being the man that I am I kindly asked the young man to stand as I escorted him outside to comfort him.

He asked “what did I do wrong that everyone would hate me so much.” I knew then that he wasn’t just speaking about the church but life itself. And all I could say that sometimes people just don’t understand, and when people didn’t understand something, they usually take it as a fear, and fear makes people do and say terrible things. This individual is now part of a church nearby that even the pastor is an out of the closet gay minister. And I applaud that because at least this individual has found a home where he can serve God without prejudice.

So, family I ask you, no I beg you to try to fully understand that things are changing and that God and his only begotten son Jesus Christ may be the cause. People are people whether their color is different from yours or their s*xual orientation differs the fact is that we all love some sort of deity and by showing hatred which is opposite of love then we are all living negatively and those that are against same s*x love should learn or at least try to understand and give people a chance.

I hope that this sermon brings some sort of hope to those that are living the way these individual lives, and to those that don’t at least try to understand what they are going through. Enjoy your upcoming week and stay blessed, AMEN.

Scripture 8 (Homelessness)
Good afternoon everyone, first and foremost I would like to wish you all a very happy and healthy Sunday. Today’s service means a lot to me, and to many others that I have met during one of my worst tribulations that I ever had to experience. Homelessness. Homelessness has never really frightened me before but, I must admit that the reason that I was not frightened of it was because I thought that it would never happen to me. Being homeless is no joke, and lucky for me it happened to me while I was living in another state that didn’t have to worry about it being cold.
But, what about all the individuals that aren’t so lucky. Here in New York for example. Yes, during the summer month’s I too would have gotten through it without worry because I could have chosen a spot to hide my things and to rest my head. But in the months after the summer season passes, what would I have done then? There were times even being homeless in a state that for me was considered to be a weather free worried environment, I still felt alone, hungry most of the time, and with no hope. I just wanted the good lord to take me home. I begged him to get it over with. And you know how you were taught that God listen to all your prayers and wishes. And that sometimes he blesses you with what you wish for, and sometimes he just says no, not now I have other plans for you? Well, I am so happy that he did not grant me that wish.
For indeed he did have plans for me. I guess in order for me to follow his path walking side by side, learning all I can about how his son gave his life in order for us to live (John 3:16 shown below) I needed to be humbled. Cleansed of all the worldly things that I realized I didn’t need because in fact I didn’t have anything but the clothes on my back. When I did become homeless, I had 4 large bags of clothes that I couldn’t lug around anymore. So, in order for them not to go to waste I donated mostly everything I had to the shelter that I was occupying at that moment. It was hard to go back there everyday to sleep and eat seeing all those men that had permanent residence walking around the center wearing my things.
But looking back at it now I’m glad that I was able to help them even though I needed help as well. But the blessings that I have gotten from those men is worth more than anything I could buy at any store. I would give my life just so that they cold live. Being homeless doesn’t make a person bad, doesn’t make them a thief, doesn’t make them drug addicts. Some of those men were there due to broken marriages, unfortunate series of events that they had no control over. These were great men that God has plans for. They just need the help to get by until God calls them to do the things that he has planned for them. That is why I am making a call to duty of you all today. It’s November the month that we celebrate Thanksgiving. But for many they feel that they have nothing to be thankful for. If you see a homeless person either male, female, can you do something nice for them today? Give them that half of sandwich you had left over from lunch, a dollar or to two to get something warm in their bellies. Or even a chance to have someone to talk to. Any act of kindness will bring hope for their future giving them something to be thankful for.
I thank you fam for taking the timeout to read this sermon for God kept me alive to write it for you today. He is truly wonderful and he expect all of us to live a life of good deeds ensuring you a place in heaven.
Below I have some passages concerning the topic of today’s sermon, enjoy:
John 3:16
16. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Luke 14:13-14
13-14. But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you. For you will be repaid at the resurrection of the just.
Luke 12:33-34
33-34. Sell your possessions, and give to the needy. Provide yourselves with moneybags that do not grow old, with a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys’. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Proverbs 14:31
31. Whoever oppresses a poor man insults his Maker, but he who is generous to the needy honors him.
Thank you so much for visiting today, and our hope is that this post finds you in the helping spirit, and that if you do happen to come across a homeless person it also finds you in giving one as well.

Scripture 7 (Patience)
Good afternoon fam, I hope when you read this post it finds you healthy and well. And for those that are feeling a little off today I pray that God/Goddess lays their healing hands on you and begin to heal you of your pain and woes. Can I get an amen? I know that in the world we all live in, individuals had to learn to be patient. Whether it is getting on a long line just to purchase groceries, trying to make a living, and even to get medical advice. Times are changing due this Corona non-sense. But, what can we do but be patient.
In the good book the lord says in Romans chapter 12 verse 12, “Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.” That verse says a lot about what we are still going through. Be PATIENT in tribulation. But most important “be constant in prayer.” Prayer is so important because that is the best way to speak to God/Goddess. I’m not talking about reciting the lord’s prayer which can be found in Matthew chapter 6 verses 9-13, or saying the hail Mary (Both prayers will be posted below for those that don’t know them), it is really about having a normal conversation with God. He already knows the our father and the hail Mary. He also knows our tribulations because he is all-knowing. Nothing gets by the lord. You sin he knows; you give when you have not much to give, he knows; you harm someone you better believe HE KNOWS! But I bet every once in a while, he just wants to conversate with us. Best buds hanging out and talking.
At times I find myself just closing my eyes and envisioning him and I in a small boat fishing, drinking virgin pina coladas and just shooting the breeze. Having a conversation with God/Goddess is like talking to mom or dad, and for some maybe their go to person was an aunt, uncle, grandparent, and perhaps even a best friend. It’s that easy. So, if your going through something, feeling some type of way, or just feel like having a chat you don’t need any other kind of outlet like cell phones to speak with him/her. All you need to do is open your heart and speak. He’s listening and he will answer you in his own way. Maybe it’s a sign, someone saying something to open your thoughts to a solution. God is good fam, and works in mysterious ways. I truly believe he answers everyone just sometimes the things you speak about or want he just says no too. If you feel you need another individual to talk to besides the ones mentioned above. Remember I am always he for you, I promise.
Trust me fam god understands and wants you to practice being patient. He/she got you covered fam no need to worry about that. This is one subject that you will not have tribulations.

Below I have provided some verses on today topic. I hope you enjoy:

2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.

Psalm 27:14
Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!

Galatians 5:22-23
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.

Below is the Lord’s Prayer and the Hail Mary

Hail Mary
Hail, Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

The Lord's Prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done; on as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.
