The Love INC Ministry Center's First Completed Room
After over a year of people working together on the Ministry Center, God allowed us to bring the first beautiful room to fruition. This is due to all the volunteers, hard work, donations, donated labor, researched prices and the generosity of so many people. This one room, among many, will be a place that will be life changing to so many people for years to come. This room would not be this beautiful without God bringing people together to make it happen. While there is still a lot of work a head of all of us, we wanted to take a minute to praise God for blessing this project!

What is the Mobile Pantry Truck?
Love INC’s fresh food give away happens twice per month. Each time we order 10,000 lbs. of fresh food from Feeding America (formally known as Second Harvest Gleaners) with monies donated from the community. Love INC's volunteers distribute the food in the parking lot of St. Patrick Catholic Church to people in need within our community. We will be there rain, snow, sleet or shine.
Here is Elizabeth McLaughlin's story about her own personal experience while volunteering at one of these trucks. Elizabeth is a Spring Lake High School Student.
