Home Helps - Fall 2025
17–18 October 2025
Jesus tells us that we are to love our neighbors as ourselves (Matt. 22:39), and that's the goal and focus of our Community Missions. We want to be the light on a hill for those in Locust Grove and the surrounding communities.
Below are just some of the ways we are Making Christ Known in our community.
Community Outreach Programs
Living Water Community Clinic, a mission of The Lake of the Woods Church in partnership with area churches, organizations and businesses, serves uninsured and underinsured patients whose household incomes do not exceed the 300% federal poverty level.
Home helps is simply loving our neighbors as we offer home repairs and simple home care to the elderly, shut-ins and single parents.
A ministry for adults with special needs that provides a Church based venue for fellowship, worship through song, prayer and Bible study.

Mechanics Ministry helps take care of basic vehicle maintenance for those who cannot do so themselves.
Mechanics Ministry takes place March – October.
Cub Scouts Pack 197 and Scouts BSA Troop 197 meet at The Lake of the Woods Church cabins. Scouting has been a wonderful opportunity for The Lake of the Woods Church to reach out to boys in the community and their families.
In partnership with area businesses, we provides local children with the necessary supplies to head back to school feeling confident and ready to learn.
Stuff the Bus takes place every year in late July.
With its existing infrastructure and caring congregants, The Lake of the Woods Church and its community of believers can be the solution to the local foster care problem.
The purpose of the Benevolence Ministry at the Lake of The Woods Church is to rally together and extend aid to not only our fellow brothers and sisters in our church family but also those in the community during times of financial crises in order to demonstrate and promote Christ’s free gift of love and grace.
