Evangelism & Community Outreach

• Deacon’s Fund – Dedicated to support individuals in financial need in our community through direct donations from members of the congregation apart from routine benevolences provided in the church budget. Often times used for short-term financial support such as rent, utilities, food and gasoline.
• Food Cart – Non-perishable food items donated by the congregation then made available to members and non-members on an as needed basis. The food cart is located in the Narthex and open to all in need.
  
• 2nd Harvest Food Bank – Food sort and mobile distribution.
  
• “God’s Work. Our Hands.” – This day is an opportunity to celebrate who we are as the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America – one church, freed in Christ to serve and love our neighbor. For more information, visit: http://www.elca.org/dayofservice.
  
• Projects for Children – Collecting hundreds of pairs of socks during Socktober, filling backpacks with supplies for a nearby elementary school in need, assembling donated items into care packages for Operation Christmas Child.
• Latino Lutheran Ministries – Members are involved in social and civic activities serving our local Latino community.
• Little Treasures Preschool – An independent Christian preschool located in KFL and serving families around the Tri-Cities with high quality early childhood education. Members are actively involved in Little Treasures through fundraisers, volunteerism, direct giving, as well as serving on their Board.
• Kristi Wagnild Overseas Outreach – A world mission overseas outreach program supported through the sale of Fair Trade goods.
