Preparing Children
for School
Trusting in God’s provision and
supported by many volunteers,
our office/warehouse moved to
Waukegan in June. This new location better connects our partner
churches to those we serve.
This Love INC budgeting class graduated three students in its first
year. Christ-followers walk alongside those wanting to understand
how to better use the resources
with which God has blessed them.
Gurnee Community Church began
a new Gap Ministry to provide
new school uniforms to Love INC
families. The church embraced the
families during a ’try-on’ session
and the kids left with big smiles!
Financial Highlights, 2014
Love INC of Lake County doesn’t exist without the churches—that’s you! Your financial partnership encourages and empowers us to live out our mission in the community together.
Mobilize local churches
Almost 500 Christ-followers from 34 different churches shared over 11,000 hours of their
time as the hands and feet of Christ in Lake County.
Transform Lives and Communities, In the Name of Christ
These churches and Christ-followers connected over 680 families with almost 1,200 needs.
And with each need met, the families and teams shared prayer and time together.
Your investment in Love INC of Lake County allows us to continue to provide office and warehouse space, delivery trucks, and other resources for our partner churches, allowing them to
serve in the way God wired them.
Many Hands from
Many Churches
Teens from two partner churches
lived and served together in Zion
for one week in July. Through
painting, mowing lawns, and
weeding, they shared God’s love
with local homeowners.
Serving as the Hands
and Feet of Christ
Whether bringing a bed or dishes
into a home, helping a mom select
clothing for her children, or serving in a myriad of other ways,
Christ-followers bring prayer and
compassion into the situation.
