Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.
— Galatians 6:21
There are many opportunities for being the hands and feet of Christ and serving in our community. Take a look below and get involved!
Southeast Gwinnett Cooperative Ministry (Southeast Co-op)
The goal of the Southeast Gwinnett Cooperative Ministry is to walk alongside local households that are struggling financially, by offering assistance aimed at supporting their efforts to afford the basics of life.
The primary function of the Co-Op is to provide FOOD and or NON-FOOD pantry support. Households that utilize the Co-Op as a food resource can free up money that then can be applied to other household needs. A family of 4 has the opportunity to receive approximately $1,800 in pantry supplies yearly.
A secondary potential benefit of the Co-Op is financial assistance for utility and prescription drug expenses. This limited benefit is intended to provide additional support to proactive households that utilize the Co-Op on a steady basis as a food source for their family. A steady basis is defined as using the Co-Op for food and/or non-food Pantry assistance a minimum of 6 times in the past 12-month period (from current visit date).
