Additional Information
Isaiah 61 Ministries was founded by April and Angel Ocasio. In 2007 Angel and April along with friends who belonged to a Celebrate Recovery group at the Swatara Church of God began taking a crock-pot of soup, some sandwiches and fruit to a small group of people living under the Mulberry Street bridge in Harrisburg, PA. After doing this as a group a few times the group stopped serving, but April and Angel felt called by God to continue as a family. Through friendships built with those living at that location April and Angel began to be introduced to others in the homeless community and the ministry that God laid on their hearts grew.
In 2010 Isaiah 61 Ministries name was chosen and it's 501(c)3 status was awarded soon after. This ministry has continued to grow and to bless many people who are in need of the love of Jesus.
