In 2023, LifePointe will be selecting a local organization each month and encouraging you to donate specific items that will help them continue their mission. Look for the big blue bin in the Gathering Space each week and drop your items there. Each month, we'll highlight an organization, what they do, and how your donations will help. Check out the upcoming months below...
SEPTEMBER
September is Kinship Care Awareness Month at the Williamsburg Department of Social Services and the LifePointe Outreach is partnering with them to help collect some much needed items.
Join us in supporting these families throughout the month of September by grabbing one or more of the listed items and returning them to the big blue bins in the church lobby.

Crockpot Meals (September 14)
WHAT IS IT?
The Crock-Pot Meal Ministry is a partnership between LifePointe, multiple local organizations, and local motel management to supply hot, self-made meals for sheltered homeless families locally. Families receive a new CrockPot, CrockPot liners, instructions, recipes, basic kitchen items, and meal ingredients for two meals for each family, every other week.
HOW CAN YOU HELP?
On a selected date, LifePointe will commit to delivering meals to ALL 18 families that are a part of this program. These families already have CrockPots, but need someone to deliver meal ingredients to be prepared in their room.
