Human Care
Everyone at some point finds themselves in a place where they need a little help or encouragement. Sometimes that help comes in the form of time together in fellowship and at other times it may be through resources. Our Human Care team serves both those inside as well as outside of our congregation.
Feed the Hungry
The
“Feeding the Hungry” (FTH) Program started in 1991 and began with a few volunteers and some local churches serving sandwiches
each Sunday in a downtown park. The program, which is spearheaded
by Christ Lutheran, now consists of over 70 volunteers from 5 different churches. The FTH program serves one of the few hot
meals for
people in need.
Every Sunday a FTH team of volunteers prepares and serves a dinner at
the downtown Hilo Salvation Army. There
are no restrictions on who are served – kids, adults, seniors, the homeless, and
those who have trouble making ends meet.
Many from Christ Lutheran have offered countless hours over 28
years serving hot meals and showing Christ’s love to those in our community who
are in need.
FELLOWSHIP Hikes
We have a group who are exploring some fun trails here on the big island with monthly hikes of various distances and difficulty. Everyone is invited.
