With Jesus Christ laying down his life for us and serving as our Good Shepherd (John 10:11), He not only provided the way of salvation for a broken world, but also the ultimate example to emulate in our care for each other.
With full dependence on God the Father, and empowered by the Holy Spirit, our Savior willingly and sacrificially stepped into the felt, real and anticipatory needs of those He encountered.
As Christ followers, we seek in obedience to imitate His perfect example through the way we aim to tenderly, in truth and love, carry out His commission to love as we have been loved and to serve as He has lavishly served us (John 13:12-17).

An outgrowth of the provision of God and the generous giving of our church family, the benevolence process is a way of meeting or assisting individuals or families with their basic financial needs in a time of crisis or transition.
It is an intentionally relational and dignified process that includes an evaluation of the request and surrounding contextual circumstances, a determination of what is needed, as well as financial, emotional and spiritual support.
West County members and attenders are given priority in the disbursement of benevolence provisions.
By completing this form, we will be able to determine the most appropriate support and care to offer. The more information provided upfront, the better equipped we will be to respond in a targeted, timely, and efficient manner.
