Benevolence
AID AND
ASSISTANCE Benevolence is the Father's Heart in Action. This growing ministry involves the whole church community, their time, talents, and finances. Through their efforts, we are able to minister to the families within our church community who seek help. Financial and non-financial needs are met. Help may range from one-time assistance to more extensive aid.
For more information, please call Sharon Moody at 425-402-4445.
HELPING
HANDS BANK
We all have needs from time to time when we
could use a helping hand, be it a home-cooked meal after a
surgery, a pick-up truck to help us move a sofa, or a broken
fence that needs mending, and we don’t
have the skill to do it ourselves or the money to pay to have
it done. The benevolence ministry has developed a network of
volunteers who would be called on when those needs arise.
This ministry depends solely on the response
from the church family and areas of help are developed only
when there are enough volunteers in the bank to be able
to assist in the needs.
HOME REPAIR
Includes painting, simple carpentry repairs,
plumbing, (leaking faucets, pipes, etc.) electrical and
appliance evaluation.
HOME CARE
Includes light housekeeping (laundry,
vacuuming, tidying), transportation to and from doctor
appointments or simple errands, visiting, (encouraging,
praying, etc.) Needs would arise from illness or disability
or recovering from surgery or childbirth, or a person living
alone on a fixed income.
Meals: The volunteer either prepares
or purchases a dinner meal for the one in need and delivers it
to their home.
VEHICLES
Includes volunteering your truck, trailer,
van, or other vehicle to help with moving, hauling, etc. It
may also include your time to drive or operate vehicles needed
to get a project done.
MUSCLE POWER
This is a broad category that could include
heavy lifting, moving, yard work, hauling debris, moving
furniture, etc.
If you'd like to volunteer your skills as a member of
the Helping Hands Bank, please phone Sherrie, Kathy or Sharon at the
church office, 425.402.4445.
