Local Churches. Local Needs. One Mission to Love.

Our mission and vision

Love INC of Van Wert County's mission is to mobilize local churches to transform lives and communities in the Name of Christ. Our vision is to see Christian churches united in purpose and fully engaged in actively living out their faith by lovingly serving people in need in our community.

How Love INC Work

Love INC helps local churches work together so needs are not overlooked, duplicated, or met without relationship. Through our Connection Center, we listen, pray, verify needs, and connect neighbors to practical help, caring volunteers, and opportunities for lasting transformation.

Part of a National Movement

Love INC of Van Wert County is locally led and focused on serving neighbors right here in our community, while also being part of the Love INC National movement. Across the country, Love INC affiliates help churches work together to meet needs, build relationships, and transform lives in the name of Christ.

Our Partner Churches

Christian churches from across at least six denominations partner together to form a Love INC. Within these partnerships, Love INC serves as the scaffolding upon which greater growth is possible. However, it is the Christians in these churches who model Christ’s love and answer God’s call to serve. Working together as the body of Christ, we can best love and serve our community.
