Incarnate Word
Good Samaritan Fund
| |
For many years, The Good Samaritan Fund here at Incarnate Word has been a blessing to members and friends of the congregation who have found themselves experiencing severe financial difficulties. Whether it be help with rent, utility bills, food, or much needed car repairs, this fund has proven to be a Godsend to so many in our midst.
This holiday season has seen an increased need for this fund and as a result it is nearing depletion. The needs of our members and friends are real and so too is the difference this fund has made in their lives.
We invite you to consider opening your hearts to the hands-on needs of our neighbors by making a gift of any size to The Good Samaritan Fund. Please see Pastor Doug if you have any questions.
