Local Church Gives To Nonprofits Amid COVID-19 PandemicNew Life Christian Church and World Outreach is giving back to the community with a donation of $5,000 to Combined Community Services and $5,000 to The Salvation Army of Warsaw.
These two organizations continue to serve Kosciusko County during the COVID-19 outbreak, according to a news release from the church.
While CCS has closed the building to the public, they are continuing to provide most all services. The food pantry is open as a drive-up service on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Salvation Army is open daily and are continuing their services as well.
New Life Christian Church and World Outreach, founded by Pastor John and Debbie Lowe, has been in existence since 1983.
Pastor Lowe said that this donation “reminds people that we have two great agencies locally who are making a real difference. ... it’s not about us, it’s not even about our church as a corporate group of local believers. It’s about the greater vision of the kingdom of God reaching down in this world where people are really hurting and helping people to come out of poverty and meeting their needs.”##
CCS provides comfort, hope and resources for neighbors in need. CCS works with people to stabilize their situation through its emergency assistance and continues the path toward independency by working with them to set and meet sustainable long-term goals through its economic self-sufficiency programs.
