Serving the Lord

You can find a way to serve the Lord in our local church and in our mission to the community with our

"Seeds of Hope"  Volunteer Program here at our church. 

There are registration forms available in the church office. 

 

By serving others, we serve Christ, for He said,

"Just as you did it to the least of these, you did it to Me."

Open Door Health Clinic 654.9544 The Open Door Health Clinic is a faith-based ministry that aims to serve the many medical needs of low income and uninsured/underinsured people of Clinton County.  Volunteer duties are to work at the receptionist desk to greet and process patients as they arrive, answer phones, schedule appointments and file.  The time commitment involved would typically be two hours every other week, but the clinic will welcome any assistance.  Hours are Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Fridays from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.
Parkview Home 659.6378 The Parkview Home is funded partly through Clinton county appropriations and partially through rent paid by the residents.  The Seeds of Hope project for the Home will be sponsoring a carnival for the residents in April.  Current plans call for church members to participate in activities and games with the residents and for a meal of pizza and soft drinks with them.

 Pregnancy Resource Center 

 

The Center helps women in the midst of crisis pregnancies by providing emergency assistance including clothing, food, furniture and housing.     The Center needs women to serve as counselors.  Hours are flexible; you may help as little or as much as you desire.  Other service options include: helping with mailings, cleaning, sorting baby clothes, distributing flyers, or hosting a baby shower.  Located at 1746 E. Wabash St.  Grace Ann Byrd is the Center's Director.  The e-mail address is:  frankfort@hopeforafuture.com
