We believe that everyone at Leicester City Vineyard can get involved in our local community and change the lives of those around us. A few of the things we do are:
- Small Groups
- Woman’s Refuge
- Care for the Poor
- Training
- Church Planting
Storehouse
In Leicester we have seen a need to serve the homeless, hungry and vulnerably housed people, through working with existing hostels and drop-in centres.
We run a Storehouse stocked with food, toiletries, nearly new clothes, baby items and household linen, which we give way to those in our city that have need of them.
We believe that God is compassionate and that He cares that about the situation of the homeless, hungry, and vulnerably housed people in our city. We want to make a difference to these people by practically demonstrating God’s love and acceptance to them, with no strings attached.
Two key areas that we are currently working in are:
1. Hostel Support
We are continually looking for ways to demonstrate Gods love to those staying in the city’s hostels. So far our Storehouse has provided toiletries, clothing, emergency food parcels and Christmas gifts to a number of hostels and refuges in Leicester.
We are also developing a Pampering and Craft ministry in a women’s hostel. The ladies may learn how to make jewellery or have their nails painted but fun is had by all!
Contact us for more information or to get stuck in.
