Local Outreach

We are a community gathering place, opening our church to many organizations and reaching out to the community through our Neighbor -2- Neighbor and Porchlight ministries.

Outreach also includes service in our community. Our members are encouraged to participate in local service projects such as Habitat, Brush With Kindness, Operation Christmas Child and St. Martin's Table. The WLC Ding-A-Lings are an army within an army, regularly collecting money for the Salvation Army's red kettle program during the holidays.

We also commit church financial resources to local missions, including:

  • Partners in Mission - Minneapolis Phillips Neighborhood
  • Iglesia Hispana Betel - migrant workers
  • Campus Missions International - international students at the U of M

The Mission Field

Short-term mission opportunities abound for youth and adults. Members have served a church plant in Arizona, worked in orphanages in Jamaica, Romania and Belarus, did bicycle music ministry in Maryland and Michigan, painted and repaired homes in the Midwest through youth work camps, and served on mission teams in Ecuador, the Ukraine and Venezuela.

Long-term missions are vital to our commitment to reach the world for Jesus Christ. We provide Christian leadership training for missionary youth workers in Ecuador, are involved in establishing a church in Venezuela, a school construction project in Paraguay, and an orphanage in Jamaica.
