Order of the good samaritan
Purpose of order
Membership in the Order of the Good Samaritan is a wonderful opportunity to join in service with others and give love and comfort to those who are suffering.
"The first requirement of the Good Samaritan is to care for those in need-physical need, spiritual need, emotional need-to provide care and comfort and compassion, to go forth and to be able to intelligently help souls who are suffering from whatever dire accident or affliction has befallen them, and to be sensitive to the fact that many suffer extreme burdens of a psychological nature who also must be tended."
