Dignity Serves Training

by | Aug 3, 2017 | News & Notes | 3 comments

Dignity Serves promotes a fundamentally different view of helping others than what tends to be practiced. It’s not about setting up the conditions for a transaction – where needs and assets are cataloged and matched for short term results. It’s about setting up the conditions for a relationship – where assets are shared for godly purposes.

In these types of relationships, there is dignity, there is giving and receiving, there is interdependence, there is love and there is no shame. These are the building blocks of long-term impact and transformation.

Join us on Monday nights from 6-8:30pm at Love INC’s Relational Ministry Center, September 11, 18 and 25.

It’s quite incredible that all of this happens almost every day, and every week, by diligent volunteers who embody our diligence core value.

Not only is there a large variety of “things to do,” but also a deep investment by those who say yes to volunteering. Most volunteers serve weekly, some even daily, spending hundreds of hours donating the gift many of us hold most tightly – the gift of time.

In 2023 alone, 420 volunteers invested 49,120 hours – a value of $1.5 million! 

Our core mission is to love, serve and connect with dignity as we follow Jesus Christ closely, watching how he transforms lives – and we often highlight the transformation happening through our Life Skills Program.

What we often forget to highlight is that God is also transforming lives through volunteerism, giving community members purpose, friendship, creativity, and belonging. Here at Love, we believe everyone has something to offer.

If you are a volunteer, at Love Your Neighbor or elsewhere, thank you for this priceless gift!
