We talk about benevolence in terms of numbers of occurrences. Our benevolence ministry is a blessing to many people. As a church we are affecting many lives in our community. We helped non-members with rent, utilities, emergency expenses and prescription drugs. Because of your generosity, we are known in this community for being a major source of assistance to families in financial crisis.

There are 48 Singing Oaks members who are active volunteers. Each serves one time/month and a few volunteer for as many a three time/month. This work couldn’t be sustained without this great group of Christian brothers and sisters. They witness this work and are gracious hosts for this busy ministry. The work we do has many faces. Each of these volunteers often have opportunities to greet and help the families who come to us for help. Their work and efforts are greatly appreciated. They do a great job of representing Singing Oaks Church of Christ to all the families who visit us for assistance.
