Caring Network
Through multiple pregnancy resource centers in DuPage County, women are welcomed with unconditional love, counsel, and resources. Through ultrasound technology and pregnancy counselors skilled in intervention, Caring Network addresses the complex issues that compel a mother to seek abortion as her answer. For women and men who have experienced the pain of abortion in the past, support is also offered through the Restore After Abortion program.
For more information visit their website at http://caringnetwork.com or contact Caring Network staff directly via email or phone (630-493-1340).
Safe Families
When a parent is in crisis and has nowhere else to turn, we can be a support to them and help them care for their children. By being trained to temporarily host vulnerable children, we can provide an extended family environment to keep children safe – allowing their parent to deal with the crisis while feeling secure in the knowledge that their children are being lovingly cared for. Once the situation is stabilized, the parent and their children are reunited.
Nursing Home
Every first Saturday of the month, we visit the Bella Terra Nursing Home in Streamwood to spend time with the residents doing activities that vary from conversation to dancing. Join us once a month as we affirm the value and worth of all people—regardless of age—through fun, games, and community.
Food Pantry
Every last Saturday of the month, we partner with Hanover Township to staff our local food pantry. Volunteers can assist shoppers or help in the stockroom.
Meal Ministry
Individuals in our meal ministry team prepare (or purchase) meals and deliver them to families in our church who might be grieving a loss, facing a significant illness, or welcoming a new baby into their family.
