Are you a church?
We have a faith-based origin and foundation, but our services are charitable in nature. We do not discriminate against clients who do not share Living Faith’s teachings. You can find more information about Living Faith Church here.
Why do you do what you do?
Our reason is just a little deeper.
God is a gracious and generous God. He is worthy of all of the honor we can give Him, for He created us, and designed us to enjoy Him forever. Mankind consistently rejects God and has failed to give Him the honor He is due since the beginning of time. This rejection of God deserves His wrath, but instead of giving us what we deserved, He offered us His love by sending Jesus to take that punishment upon Himself. He paid a price by dying in our place so that we could have something great for free – forgiveness, freedom, and full joy forever in Heaven. He offers this to all people, inviting them to respond to the offer through faith.
Our stated purpose is our true purpose – we want to love our neighbors in practical ways and make our community better, and we’d like to see you do the same.
But, the reason we are compelled to do this is that we know we have been shown tremendous love by a loving and gracious God and we’re trying to imitate Him.
I was deeply relieved and thankful that I could afford necessities like medicine and groceries after receiving free car repairs
