Introducing the Go Grant!

The purpose of the Go grant is formed out of the heart of Luke 10 where Jesus sends out the 72 and further delineates how to love our neighbor in word and deed, he commissions his followers to “Go and do likewise.”

We encourage small groups, missional communities, Adult Fellowships and individuals of LAC to embody love by giving their time to meet a specific need (with priority given) to our Local Partner organizations. Our partner organizations are primarily Stars, Door of Hope, Elizabeth House, Hoving Home, Testimony Ministries and Obria Medical Clinics.) LAC participants would identify a need that they are able to meet (Ex: Graduation party for Door of Hope grad, Event supplies at Harambee outreach, Devotion and Donuts at Hoving Home, etc.).

The group/individual would request funds from Missional Outreach/Local Partners budget up to the amount of $5,000 and be approved in advance for use of those funds for their ministry opportunity. The Go Grant removes the financial burden and provides the cost for the materials needed.

Entering into the service opportunities with a mindset of mutual transformation, we find all involved to be inspired and blessed. Groups can easily invite non-believers to do service in the community as an on-ramp for LAC invitation and pre-evangelism. The partner organizations are blessed by both the participation and the resources. Church members are inspired and encouraged by the direct outreach of our para-church partners. Win on every level!
