WAYS TO ASSIST
- Prayer – The Helping Hands committee members are committed to regularly pray for any church that asks us to - overcoming difficulties begins with prayer to the Lord. Just let us know and we will join you in prayer.
- Financial Assistance – These can be set up as one-time assistance, or ongoing assistance for a set time frame. Examples:
- Ongoing expenses, such as utilities, supplements to pastoral salary, etc.
- Costs of outreach/assistance to others in the community
- Expenses for moving the church to a new location or starting a new church.
- Any other innovative plan that will support church growth and renewal.
- Encouragement, Advisory Support Teams – We don’t pretend to know all the answers, but we are certain that Jesus does. We would be honored if a church would allow a small group of us to meet with them to discuss their needs and explore options for using the committee’s resources to help follow Jesus’ answers to overcoming particular difficulties.
