.OPPORTUNITIES TO SERVE .
Open Door Food Kitchen
This week your donations helped a Word of Life family with their electric bill, and a lady in the community to visit a sick child receiving essential out-of-town care. Each month, at the Open Door Food Kitchen, WOLC provides 600 meals to those in our community who would otherwise go hungry. If you are interested in serving at the Open Door Food Kitchen, contact Megan Taylor at the church office for dates and details. WOLC volunteers actively support Second Harvest in a variety of ways. New opportunities are available this summer, including a community garden and a summer lunch program for kids. Contact Megan Taylor at the church office for more information.
