WholeLife Church believes Sabbath was intended for three things: Worship, Fellowship, and Service. At Meet/Worship/Serve each year, we celebrate these vital aspects of Sabbath together. On Saturday, November 6, our 9:30am worship service and all classes will be canceled, and we invite YOU to participate in serving our community that morning. Then gather together at the church at Noon for a worship celebration.
We have several service opportunities to choose from, including options you can do at home if you are gathering with us virtually. Sign up by October 31!
This year we are also partnering with The Sharing Place to provide holiday meals for 500 local families in need. Download the supply list here and bring your completed bags with you on November 6!
On August 1, 2020, we held our first panel discussion on racism to hear from our church community about their experiences and learn how we can help make a change. WholeLife Church Justice Ministries seeks to continue this conversation in hopes of being a catalyst for change.
Check out the Let’s Talk page for more resources and to watch our past panel discussions.
Justice Ministries focuses on serving youth in the community. Below are partner organizations that you can get involved with today!
Family Promise of Greater Orlando (FPGO) is a nonprofit, interfaith hospitality network providing temporary assistance and case management for families with children experiencing homelessness. FPGO provides services through participation of local congregations, dedicated staff and hundreds of volunteers. WholeLife Church hosts three to four families experiencing homelessness every quarter through FPGO. When families come to WholeLife Church, they spend a week in our classrooms converted to bedrooms and are provided daily meals and snacks. To get involved, contact krizia@wholelife.church.
WholeLife Church has several annual drives for children in foster care. In December, we collect toys to give foster care children a special Christmas. We also continuously collect clothes to donate to From Outside In, which provides one-day boutiques to children in foster care and adoptive families. And every May we participate in Foster Care Awareness Month with learning and service opportunities throughout the month. We also host an annual Foster Parent Night Out event, giving foster parents a night out while we provide child care and activities for foster youth! If you are interested in getting involved, contact Krizia at: krizia@wholelife.church.
From Outside In (FOI) is a mobile boutique that allows youth (ages 12-21) to shop for free new and gently used clothes. Some families find it hard to get the services that they need—FOI provides services directly to the community. FOI believes every youth should feel confident, and the right clothing can help boost confidence at school, in the community and eventually in the workforce. WholeLife Church gets involved with FOI each year by donating clothes and assisting with events. FOI has current volunteer position openings! To get involved, contact krizia@wholelife.church.
