Love People Home
We believe that simple acts of kindness can open hearts to the love of Jesus for those being served and for those serving. Our goal is to show people the love of Jesus by meeting the tangible needs of our communities.
Our Motto & Mission
We are motivated by the words of Jesus found in Matthew 25:35-36, where he identifies himself with the hungry, the thirsty, the stranger, the naked, the sick, and the imprisoned. These outline our five focal points of outreach – Food, Water, Shelter, Clothing, and Care – through which we demonstrate and share the love and faithfulness of Jesus.
