What is this about?

Hello,

Our names are Meadow and Kaia Knight, and we are the founders of a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization called World Taste and See Ministries, Inc. We are 17 year old twins that felt the call of God at age 13. This ministry was inspired after the Bible verse Psalm 34:8 which says, "Taste and See that the Lord is good; blessed is he who takes refuge in Him."

Our prayer is that people will taste and see the goodness of Jesus!

The beginning of World Taste and See Ministries…

In the spring of 2022, we went on our first short-term mission trip with our family and church to Philly Dream Center in Philadelphia PA. After serving the Lord, we returned home heart-changed with a desire to serve Lord. We were able to connect with Citybeat Dream Center in Baltimore and serve with them during their kids’ outreaches, soup kitchens, and then partner with them during their prayer and evangelism walks and help during their Wildfire Wednesdays for children. We are so thankful for Citybeat! They have servant hearts for the Lord and have been such encouraging mentors to us.

After much time in prayer in November of 2022, God clearly put it on our hearts to start a street ministry. We were able to create our non-profit organization, World Taste and See Ministries, Inc. in the spring of 2023! Then soon after, the Lord began to speak to us about starting a ministry in York, PA.

In December of 2023, the Lord opened up doors for us to start a prayer and evangelism walk in York City. The prayer and evangelism walk has been going ever since and is still occurring with an amazing team that is dedicated to sharing the love of Jesus to our community. Every Monday night, rain or shine, our team pulls a wagon through the streets feeding 150-200 people each night with hot soup, sandwiches, donuts, water, and snacks. We give out food, pray with people, and share the hope we have in Jesus! We are so thankful for our God-loving team that is sowing seeds to hundreds of people every Monday!

WTSM continued to grow and in the spring of 2024, we started “Hope Dealing Saturdays” where we provide clothes, donuts, coffee, hygiene supplies, and different necessities for the community once a month. God has lined up so many connections of groups that donate foods/goods to the ministry and we are so grateful!

Also, in the spring of 2024, we were able to start the monthly “Fuel-Up Fridays” kids' event where we offer pizza, games, worship, and most importantly, Jesus! This incredible community event offers a safe environment for children to play games, hear God’s word, worship, and connect with each other. We have seen so many children give their hearts to Jesus and have been able to connect with many parents through this outreach.

Recently, WTSM has started a quarterly “Sozo” nighttime outreach. Sozo is a Greek word for salvation. It means to save, heal, deliver, and make whole. This outreach is designed to bless all women in our city. Many women that we get to bless are living in sex-trafficking/prostitution, addiction, and/or poverty. Throughout this outreach we bless women with blessing bags and most importantly we share Jesus! We have seen God move in mighty ways during these outreaches!

We have now started this building campaign because the Lord has opened up doors for us to purchase a building in the heart of York City so that we can fulfill the vision that the Lord has placed on our hearts. This campaign is called the “York Taste and See Center 3 Month Campaign”.

We have a God-given dream to start weekly soup kitchens, where there is a space for people to come in, sit, and eat, while we take that opportunity to share the Gospel and pray with them. The Lord has also placed on our hearts to have Bible studies, open a resource center for the people we minister to, an after school program for kids, and so much more.

Over the past 1 ½ years, we have seen the Lord transform the lives of many people in York! We have also seen a hunger for Jesus and many surrender their lives to Jesus. Many of the people we meet in York City are caught up in addiction, prostitution, sex trafficking, poverty, and/or homelessness. We believe that this building will be a beacon of hope to those in our city! This will be a place of worship and praise to Jesus Christ, full of the Holy Spirit! The Lord is going to do more than we could ever ask or think!!

Over the past 6 months we have had our eye on a building and we are believing that God has given us signs that this is the building, in Jesus’ name!

The awesome news is that, even though the building is not for sale, we have been able to meet with the owner and he would like to sell the building to us by the end of the year!

In order to make this happen, we need to raise $300,000! This amount is what we will need to purchase the building and for renovation costs, which may be significant.

The owner’s goal is to sell us the building by the end of the year. So that means we need to raise $300,000 in 3 months.

This is not just a building, this is an opportunity to impact the Kingdom of God. We can’t do this without you. We need your help!

Would you pray with us and join us in faith… as we work to claim this territory for the Kingdom of God?

Our mission is to share the GOOD NEWS of Jesus Christ! Jesus is the only one who can heal, set free, and change lives.

World Taste and See Ministries is committed to following Jesus and sharing the Gospel in York City and beyond. This ministry is investing in something that is eternal and that is souls! The Lord has been doing beautiful things in York City and this is just the beginning. Now is the time and greater things are yet to come, in Jesus’ name!

If you feel led, will you consider partnering with us financially and prayerfully to see this God-given dream come to life as people taste and see the goodness of God!

Thank you and may the Lord bless you.
