On April 11, Project Homeless Connect held a one-day event which was rescheduled from February due to weather. There were 50 agencies represented that day. Love INC staff and volunteers were available to provide information to 120 neighbors in need who visited the Love INC table. In addition to information, underwear and socks collected during the HUGS campaign, were distributed. The hats and gloves collected during that campaign were distributed during the colder months of winter. Call Center Coordinator Robin Smith made the rounds to visit each of the other agencies represented to connect with them on how to work together in serving Greater Hillsboro.

In February and March, Executive Director Jolene Snow was blessed to join two of our partner churches. In February, she represented Love INC at Harvest Community Church (image) for their Missions Sunday. In March, she joined Laurel Community Church for their Mission Conference.

April 7, God answered our prayers regarding opening another day of the week! We are now open Mondays, answering calls from noon until 2:30 p.m. The first Monday, there were eight calls into the call center from neighbors, and 10 on our second Monday open. On both days, volunteers also made calls to follow up with neighbors to gather more information and to schedule Gap Ministry connections. We’ve been so busy during these Mondays, we haven’t yet had an opportunity to take any pictures!

While we were able to open, we need additional volunteers for Monday. If you’re interested in volunteering on Monday, know someone who might be interested, or would like to know about other volunteer opportunities, please check out our Volunteer Opportunities.

God blessed us when new (to us) office furniture was donated to Love INC. You prayed with us as we planned a design layout that would enhance the work done in the office. As of January, we have a new look!

We’re praying God will connect us with a group that can use our previous furniture. Get details here.
