Danville church to serve Hendricks County residents

DANVILLE The congregation of Living Faith Church of Danville wants to show their love for Hendricks County by serving the people here.

A mission team made up mostly of students will be available June 16 through 20 and they want to know how they can serve area residents.

The church is taking requests from anyone who may need help with yard work, light construction, painting, cleaning, manual labor or similar projects and just doesnt have the hands to do it themselves.

A church near Houston, Texas, is sending its youth group about 25 people on a 16-hour drive to Danville to help Living Faith Church serve the community. They are hoping to fill their mission week with service projects for people in the Danville community and surrounding area.

We want to make ourselves available that week to serve those in need in Danville, Jon Hearing, pastor at Living Faith Church of Danville said. We dont have anything specific in mind. Were expecting requests for help with things like yard work, painting, light construction, manual labor, etc. We will consider all requests. Once we receive the requests, we will decide what we are able to do, contact those people, and schedule a workday at that persons home or business. Then well bring the group of students, as well as some from our own church, and serve in that capacity during that week.

Living Faith Church of Danville is a new church meeting in an old church building. It sits on the hill at the corner of Sycamore and Money Lane and has been active and growing again for just over a year now.

Pastors Jon Hearing and Kevin Carpenter have set out to grow a church that values truth, relevance, family, and community.

Because were young and have newly (re)opened, we are considered a church plant and with that comes the benefit of having mission teams come and serve our church, Hearing said. Over the last year weve had three different mission teams from Kentucky and South Carolina come to Danville and serve alongside our church. Weve volunteered at Ellis Park, weve served at the many Danville festivals, and weve worked with organizations like Sycamore Services and Sheltering Wings.

We know that community is important in Danville and so community is important to us. We want to serve our community in as many ways as possible and were thrilled to see how we can serve them during our mission week.

All requests will be considered, but Danville residents will be given priority. To make a request, e-mail to jon@faith2live.com.
