Our Mission & Purpose
Benevolence is an expression of kindness, goodwill, and a Christ-like desire to do good for others.
At our church, the Benevolence Ministry exists to extend love and support to individuals and families within our congregation and the surrounding community who are facing hardship particularly financial or material need.
Our work is rooted in Jesus’ command to feed the hungry, clothe the naked, and care for the vulnerable (Matthew 25:35-40). Whether it’s through a warm meal, a clean coat, or a listening ear, we aim to be the hands and feet of Christ in action.
