“And you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." Acts 1:8
We believe that the gospel comes with hands, feet and a heart. With that in mind, we are willing to get involved to make an impact on our surrounding community. Taking care of widows, distributing food, visiting those in prison; no matter what it is, it always comes with loving arms, a warm smile, and an open heart.
Outreach to Widows and Single Mothers - “Religion that God our father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress.” James 1:27. The New Commandment Men’s Ministry takes this verse seriously and literally. This ministry is made up of several teams of men that are trained to go and minister in practical ways to the widows and single moms of our church family. Every third Saturday of the month, each team goes out to the homes for approximately two to three hours helping as needed and praying with family members. New Commandment Men’s Ministry is always looking for new team members. For more information, contact Jami Shivel jami.s@theheightscommunity.org
Tender Loving Care (TLC) - There is a need within our community to provide spiritual encouragement to those who are homebound, ill, or unable to attend church services. TLC has assembled volunteers who are committed to providing visits, prayer, Bible readings or studies, copies of the church services, and notes of encouragement. TLC’s desire is to let these individuals know that they are not alone, and they are a valuable part of the Christian community. If you know of anyone needing TLC or want to volunteer to visit others, please contact Pam Sams at pam.s@theheightscommunity.org
