Mission We Support

Love, sent out.

Our festivals and the flea market raise the funds — and this is where they go. To neighbors right here in Patrick County, and to people carrying the gospel around the world.

A church isn't measure by what it keeps, but what it gives away.

We're a small congregation, but our reach isn't. Through the events we host and the gifts of our members, we help support more than a dozen ministries — feeding, housing, healing, and telling others about Jesus, both in our county and far beyond it.

Around The World

Four families, carrying the gospel.

We support missionary families serving far from Stuart — sharing the love of Christ through the word, through farming, and through everyday presence in the places they're called to. We hold them up in prayer and in giving.

Taking Care of Patrick County

Most of what we do stays close to home — because loving your neighbor starts with the ones right next door.

In Patrick County

The Penny House

LORD'S ACRE COMMITTEE MINISTRY

A fully furnished home in Patrick Springs that gives families a place to stay after a fire or natural disaster wipes out theirs. Established in 1996 by the Lord's Acre Committee — a group of local churches — and now owned outright, it runs entirely on the giving of individuals and churches, not county funds.

Disaster Food Relief Ministry

Patrick County Cluster

Free food distribution for anyone in need, the first Thursday of every month at Rotary Field. Part of the Patrick County Cluster of churches working together to keep neighbors fed.

Caring Hearts Free Clinic

VISIT THEIR SITE →

Free health care for uninsured neighbors in Patrick and surrounding counties whose income falls at or below 300% of the federal poverty level. Real medical care, at no cost, for people who'd otherwise go without.

Pregnancy Care Center

VISIT THEIR SITE →

Free medical services and compassionate support for women facing an unplanned pregnancy — walking with them through one of the hardest moments with care, not judgment.

Ramps, Porches, & Steps

Patrick County Cluster

Members of our church lend a hand building ramps, steps, and walkways for neighbors across the county who need safe access to their own homes — with others bringing food to keep the volunteers going. Pastor Tommy is right there in the thick of it.

Patrick County Developmental Center

170 Developmental Rd, Stuart

Right here in Stuart, providing vocational training, day support, and residential services for individuals with intellectual and physical disabilities — life skills, job placement, and dignity for our neighbors and their families.

The Blessing Box

On Our Front Lawn

A stocked stand right on our front lawn, filled with food and hygiene essentials. Take what you need, leave what you can — we refill it a few times a week, no questions asked.

3rd Friday Community Meal

At Our Church · 5:30 PM

A free, hot meal for the whole community on the third Friday of each month. Starts at 5:30 and runs until the food's gone — good food, good fellowship, everyone welcome.

Vacation Bible School

VISIT The Kids Page →

Our own week of summer fun and faith each June, welcoming dozens of kids from all over the county — games, songs, and the story of Jesus, run largely by our own teens.

Close to our hearts.

Local places & events where faith and community come alive for the next generation.

CAMPING MINISTRY · SW VIRGINIA

Springs of Life Camp

Tucked into the mountains of Southwest Virginia, Springs of Life is a secluded, beautiful place to unplug and reconnect your soul to Jesus — building deeper relationships with Him and with other believers. A summer here stays with a kid for life.

YOUTH RALLY · PATRICK & HENRY COUNTIES

Mannafest

A worship concert and youth rally that brings teens from across the region together to praise as one — part of the Family Discipleship cohort of local churches. By every account, worship at Mannafest is nothing short of incredible: a reminder of the joy and unity we find when we praise together.

Operation Christmas Child

200 shoeboxes. 200 kids who feel remembered.

Each box we fill — with toys, school supplies, and small treasures — travels across the world to a child in need, through Samaritan's Purse. For many of them, it's the first gift they've ever received, and it comes with the news that they're loved by God.
