Who is Love INC?
Love INC is more than a passionate staff and board. Love INC is the local Body of Christ. If you remove churches and church volunteers from Love INC…Love INC ceases to exist.
Why Love INC?
Love In the Name of Christ enables churches in a community to coordinate their resources and services so that those in need are helped effectively and efficiently. People in need receive coordinated help through a network of church and community services and resources.
Local churches no longer work alone to meet the needs that come through their doors, but as the Body of Christ to fulfill their Biblical mandate to serve neighbors in need.
Church members are given the opportunity to use their unique gifts and talents in specific, manageable ways to serve others.
Community agencies can expand “their” services by referring people in need to Love INC or by receiving referrals from Love INC.
Why Do Communities Need Love INC?
Churches, individuals, and agencies operating independently of each other are inadequate to meet our community’s current and growing levels of need. That’s why churches need to work together to meet multi-faceted needs and transform lives.
How Does Love INC Work?
The heart of Love INC is the Connect Center, where volunteers receive requests, assess needs, and refer requests to a local church ministry, church volunteer, or community agency. Love INC will then follow up to ensure the need was met, and to offer spiritual support. Engaging in this type of mentoring relationship is the key to the Love INC model’s success. Through the Connect Center, Love INC also identifies gaps in services and resources in the community and helps churches develop ministries to fill those gaps.
