We are
We are for you.
In our world, sometimes it seems like people have lots working against them.
What if we chose to be FOR one another? What if we sought to understand one another and care
for our neighbors who have needs? What if we gave each other hope and a reason to live?
Whether you have a need or you desire to serve your local neighbors, join us as we seek
to make a difference in one another’s lives. Let’s be For Our Neighbor!

Adopt a School
We are for kids and their families.
Some students and families of our neighborhood elementary school have a variety of needs that regularly go unmet. Let’s be good neighbors to those at Washington Woods Elementary School in Westfield, caring for their needs and providing necessary things that make life better, like shoes and food and school supplies.
Recently we provided 40 students with school supplies as they started school. Lots of pencils, markers, glue sticks, and all the rest!
We provided FOOD for 10 WWES students and their families on spring break as well as ATHLETIC SHOES for students at the school. We love our neighbors!
Big Events
We are for fun and friends.
Neighbors laugh, talk, eat, and and do things together - basically, they have fun with each other! And yet with busy schedules and limited resources, we may have little opportunity to get to enjoy one another in safe, fun, and positive environments. Three times a year we will have big neighborhood events so we can build relationships and enjoy one another as neighbors. Our most recent event was our PIZZA AND PUNCHLINES, a FREE night of comedy at Washington Woods Elementary School. It was a great community event with over 400 in attendance......
Our next BIG EVENT is our Fabulous Fall Festival with our Premier Chili Cook-off, inflatables, games and lots of good times. Saturday, October 5, 4-8 pm at CrossRoads Church at Westfield.
MORE ABOUT OUR NEXT EVENT?
When we look for the best in a person we happen to be with at the moment,
we are doing what God does all the time. So in loving and appreciating our neighbor,
we are participating in something sacred. -MR. ROGERS
Neighborhood Caring
We are for living life with our neighbors.
Neighbors are involved in their community: they do life together and take care of each other if something comes up. Through various avenues, we enjoy reaching out to meet, enjoy, support, or bring healing to those around us. Tuesday night and Saturday mornings ZUMBA at 10 am, monthly FREE Pet Food Saturdays, and Thursday night Celebrate Recovery groups are just some of the ways we are For Our Neighbors.

Home Repairs
We are for helping neighbors fix their homes.
Some of our neighbors have home repair needs that go unmet which cause them great concern. Sometimes these issues may even keep them from getting in and out of their homes safely and may require them to move out. Let’s help repair homes and transform lives together in the summer of 2020.
