COMMUNITY CARE

Community Care is our benevolence ministry through which we can be the hands and feet of Jesus in a very tangible way.  Our desire is to help those in need to find real solutions to their financial needs through utility and prescription assistance and through our partnerships with other ministries in Hood County.  Above all else, we generously pray and truly care about our neighbors, whether or not they are members of Lakeside.

Applications will be reviewed and you can expect to hear something in 5-7 business days.
