Support MinistriesThere are any number of people who daily contribute to the success of our mission to love unconditionally. Here are a number of key ministries that you might want to be aware of and even choose to be part of... there is almost always room for another person in these ministries so don't hesitate to contact the person in charge! |

The Friendly Grounds Café utilizes volunteers to help both with food preparation and sales and with keeping the cafe looking neat and clean. If you would enjoy volunteering in the Café, then don't hesitate to contact Pat and express interest.

The Food Pantry ministry is dedicated to getting food into the hands of those who come to our attention as needing help. Our goal is to ensure that every needy individual or family, whether someone from within our church body or in the community, does not lack for this basic necessity.
 |
This is an ongoing ministry and there are always shelves in the food pantry that need replenished. Would you consider bringing in nonperishable items if the Lord has currently blessed you with plenty? Any donations should be placed in the grocery carts near the back and Activity Center entrances. No opened or outdated items please.
|
Get Connected MinistryThe Get Connected Ministry is focused on connecting those who attend WHFC with ministry needs. Those involved in the Get Connected Ministry staff the Get Connected counters in the church lobby before and/or after a worship service. This is a ministry for those who enjoy reaching out to people and helping them get plugged in.

Gate KeepersGate Keepers is a ministry to make contact with people who have been attending WHFC but who have become less involved or have dropped out. Gate Keepers would not be reaching out to WHFC members, who fall under the care of the overseers, but to those attenders who are standing, or have recently stood, at the WHFC gate and are undecided whether to push it fully open or close it behind them.

Are you available during the day to take a phone call and pray for one of the church family who has an immediate need? Or are you available by email to receive a prayer request and spend a few moments raising it up to the Lord who hears and answers the prayers of His people? If so, please consider being part of the prayer chain.

If you find yourself being the one with the immediate need, do not hesitate to call the WHFC church office and request your prayer need be sent out!

Guest ServicesGuest Services is the face of the church. They ensure the doors are opened when hands are full, questions are answered, and most importantly that a smile and word of welcome gets sent to everyone who joins our family for a service. Guest Services strives to discover, meet, and greet first time guests so they feel the love of Jesus. They ensure that the prayer needs of that guest are recorded and prayed for before the morning is over. They continue to pray for them throughout the week and encourage them with a card or phone call. The staff also gets these prayer requests and ensure they are prayed over! This effort to ensure that the prayer needs of those the Lord brings our way are lifted up is an integral part of this ministry.

UshersThe Ushers ensure we get a bulletin when entering a service and willingly help those who so desire find a seat. They also are called upon to pass the offering plate and help distribute special handouts to the congregation.
