Hi there!
We started with a vision of serving the community, which brought about the Lobelville Church Food Pantry Ministry. As a result, hundreds of families in need have been benefited from this program.
As time passed, the Food Pantry Ministry has outgrown the small fellowship room used in the distribution of food and much needed goods. Space is barely enough to fit all the items, the people we serve and those who volunteer to this much needed ministry. Plus, food items are being stored in church rooms dedicated to other ministries such as the youth class, fellowship room, etc…
Our vision is to maximize our Food Pantry program and complement it with even more Ministries for the people. “Where there is no vision, the people perish” (Proverbs 29:18), so, we urgently need to expand to be able to effectively continue to serve our community. That is what keeps us alive, and that is why the MULTICENTER Project was born!
After much prayer and meeting, God is leading us to build a MultiCenter with enough space to serve the Community. A dedicated place for the Food Pantry (without constantly moving items), for Family Restoration and Health meetings, Life and Trade skills Training, Workshops and Seminars… One need leads to another and to really minister to the Physical, Mental and Spiritual needs, we'll also have to extend our small Church and Parking sizes.
1. Food Pantry Ministry Expansion and better community reach.
2. Storage for food goods in the building and under the building, (so that other Ministries can have their rooms back).
3. Space for Community Clinics where different health practitioners can come and provide free service to the community.
4. Health classes to teach the community proper Nutrition and Cooking, Diabetes management, Depression Relief programs, Addiction Recovery, etc…
5. Room(s) for Workshops and Seminars to train the people in developing Trades and Professional/General Life skills like Computer classes, School Coops, Language learning, Art classes, etc…
6. Family Empowering Events which provide support for couples that are going through marital problems, separation or have plans to divorce. This service will help save many couples, children and youth from disaster.
7. A place for social activities where the church and community can have fellowship and socialize after the spiritual services.
8. Room for Guest Speakers to stay or where a person in an emergency need that cannot afford hotel fees can spend a night.
The possibilities in which this MultiCenter Building can help in the growth and benefit of the community of the church are infinite.

Here is a summary of the needs:
This project costs $790,000, a goal beyond the possibilities of our small congregation, still, all is possible with God! We have stepped out in faith (and action) completing architectural building plans and counting the costs (as the Bible says). We humbly invite you to partner with us to fulfill this Mission. Giving will honor God with your finances and good stewardship!
God will bless you as you serve with your resources and we also plan to recognize those who give $10,000+ by displaying their names (upon permission) outside the building during the project, and inside the building, upon completion, reminding those we serve that they are loved by you.
