Church Partners

Transforming lives and communities

Are you ready to move beyond benevolence and work toward building life-changing relationships with those who are struggling within your community? Through Love INC, churches are equipped to work together, across denominational lines, to provide coordinated holistic care. Care that not only addresses immediate concerns, but helps our neighbors develop the social and emotional support needed to overcome the root causes of recurrent problems, and live into their God-given potential.

Our Partner Churches

Christian churches from across at least six denominations partner together to form a Love INC. Within these partnerships, Love INC serves as the scaffolding upon which greater growth is possible. However, it is the Christians in these churches who model Christ’s love and answer God’s call to serve. Working together as the body of Christ, we can best love and serve our community.
