Senior Assistance
We're involved in a program tailored for seniors, providing them with a monthly selection of non-perishable foods depending on their age and income. For those unable to attend, we arrange food delivery assistance right to their doorsteps. Additionally, we help them sign up for other beneficial resources like Meals on Wheels or SNAP.

Depending on their willingness and dedication, we can even provide access to a complimentary Financial Peace class.
Our Hands, His Glory
We organize monthly or quarterly outreach initiatives where a team will assist those in need, whether it's construction projects or basic household tasks like building wheelchair ramps. Our goal is to offer practical support ensuring they receive the help they require for their homes.
Connect
We'll tailor our support to meet the specific needs of our neighbors, connecting them with the right agencies and offering guidance on the steps required to access assistance. Collaborating with local agencies, we'll facilitate referrals and diligently follow up with interested individuals. We understand that navigating the system can be daunting, and we aim to alleviate that frustration and exhaustion by offering comprehensive support.
