Community Impact
Our work in Lapeer
Rooted in faith and moved by love, we serve our neighbors across Lapeer through ongoing projects that welcome everyone to take part.
Donation area
Free Clothing Closet
We collect and distribute free clothing every Saturday morning for 50 to 80 men, women, and children. Donations are accepted each day the building is open during the week at our side door at 431 N. Court St. Open Saturday mornings, 9:00 am to 12:00 pm.
Helping the unhoused and those in need.
We host the unhoused for 2 weeks each season. We do this in coordination with the Refuge Shelter in Lapeer.
We support the efforts of LOVE INC by providing home cleaning supplies, school supplies, and Christmas food.

We assist with Downtown Lapeer events, including Ladies Night Out, Christmas Fest, Lapeer Days, Halloween Treat Walk, downtown sidewalk sale, and Car Cruise.
