Every 5 weeks West Lake Christian Church has elected to volunteer at Community for Christ on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Each day 3 women and 1 man is needed to volunteer from 10 am to 2 pm.
West Lake Christian Church is one of 7 churches in the area that supply workers for Community for Christ Thrift Store and Food Pantry located on S Hwy 5 in Laurie. We take turns a week at a time to work 4 hours a day, 3 days a week.
Community for Christ helped 946 families in 2021. 101 were new clients. About 1/3 were needing food, others were in need of assistance for utilities, gas for vehicles, rehab on their homes, and other needs. Karen Melody, the only paid administrator, also provides counseling and screens clients.
Community for Christ is funded by the local churches civic clubs, and individuals like you. West Lake Christian Church collects food items the second Tuesday of every month.
