MOBILIZING CHURCHES TO TRANSFORM LIVES AND COMMUNITIES. false false 407538 OTHER ACCOMPLISHMENTS - Church Relations & Development Our primary ministry focus is to mobilize churches to change lives and communities. To be certain we are fulfilling and expanding that focus we must periodically meet with area pastors and churches for feedback from partnering churches and to establish relationships with non-partnering churches, encouraging them to become partnering churches. During 2023, we made 17 presentations of the ministries of Love INC to church congregations and 6 presentations to other community organizations. These presentations are opportunities to educate even more people about our ministries and how they impact our communities.Community Missions This activity is a natural extension of our work to mobilize churches and to provide opportunities for church members to become actively involved in local missions work. The Director of Relational Ministries intentionally works with churches, both partnering and non-partnering, to set up such mission opportunities, generally based on needs within the ministry and on the types of volunteers coming from each specific church, such as age, physical abilities, experience, etc. Because of these volunteer teams, Love INC is able to expand activities, better organize our Donation Center, and other similar service improvements. During 2023 we were blessed with 9 such teams, providing services in both of our stores and in the Donation Center. Approximately 21 students and 14 adults participated in volunteer activities such as painting, building shelves, sorting clothes, delivering products to neighbors in need, cleaning large and small kitchen appliances, vacuuming sofas and chairs, cleaning wooden furniture, organizing donated products, cleaning vehicles that are donated to neighbors in need, and putting together products to be given to neighbors on a voucher basis. This aspect of our Community Missions activity also provided staff with opportunities to model Christian living while working with the participants. Also falling into this program is our relationship with the Community Service program of the local courts systems. During 2023 we accepted 15 people from this program who performed a total of 425 hours of community service through this Love INC ministry. 295281 475100 THRIFT STORES - We operated two retail stores. Both Thrift Stores play a crucial role in providing a significant revenue stream to support all of our ministry efforts. Through the sale of donated items, these stores generate funds that enable us to carry out various outreach programs, support individuals and families in need, and advance our mission of compassion and care. 12770 CHANGE YOUR LIFE CLASS - Through this program, participants have the opportunity to earn vouchers redeemable at specific locations for a variety of products and services, including gas for vehicles, haircuts, oil changes, paper products, personal hygiene products, and more. These essential items help meet basic needs and alleviate financial burdens, empowering participants to focus on their personal development and well-being.Within Love INC we have embarked on an innovative initiative to offer classes with rolling enrollment, providing greater flexibility and more opportunities for individuals to engage in our programs. We have observed a significant increase in engagement and retention rates among participants. In 2023 there were twenty classes offered during the three sessions with a total enrollment of sixty six during the year. Through careful evaluation and feedback mechanisms, we have been able to measure the impact of offering classes with rolling enrollment. Quantitative data, such as enrollment numbers and participant retention rates, indicate a clear positive trend, highlighting the effectiveness of this approach in meeting the needs of our community. Additionally, qualitative feedback from participants underscores the value and appreciation for the flexibility and accessibility afforded by our programs. The implementation of rolling enrollment for our classes represents a pivotal step forward in our mission to serve and empower individuals within our community. By prioritizing flexibility, accessibility, and personalized learning experience. We remain committed to continuously refining and expanding our programs to better meet the evolving needs of our community and further our mission of Mobilizing the church through love, compassion, and transformation. 5985 721574 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 4 0 false 22 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 15 15 false false false false false false false true true false false false false false false false false false VA KAREN CLINGER 5402212955 PO Box 1003 Fishersville VA 22939 WILLIAM ROBERTS ADMIN DIRECTOR 40.00 0.00 X 54642 0 0 DEBRAH RAMSEY Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X X 54320 0 0 ETHAN COLVIN OPERATIONS DIR. 40.00 0.00 X 46892 0 0 SHANE LILLY BOARD CHAIR 0.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 CALEB HARLOW Vice Chair 0.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 TIMOTHY HARRISON Secretary 0.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 SHARON WOOD Treasurer 0.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 SCOTT BRODD BOARD MEMBER 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 STACEY BURKHOLDER BOARD MEMBER 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 STEVE CAMPBELL BOARD MEMBER 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 VERONICA DAVIS BOARD MEMBER 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 BEN HALTERMAN BOARD MEMBER 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 RODNEY MARTIN BOARD MEMBER 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MARIE MASINCUP BOARD MEMBER 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JOANNE SHIRLEY BOARD MEMBER 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 155854 0 false false false 0 276850 14041 276850 BOOK SALES 2382 2382 DONATION CENTER SALES 6006 6006 STORE SALES 453310 549085 549085 557473 2952 2952 0 0 0 18328 19453 -1125 -1125 -1125 0 0 0 MISC REVENUE 41802 41802 RECYCLING DONATED GOODS 2617 2617 REIMBURSEMENTS 250 250 44669 880819 -1125 605094 0 0 0 0 155854 111410 41327 3117 0 407213 359093 42398 5722 0 0 43324 36190 6446 688 205 205 0 3284 3284 0 0 0 0 5178 5178 45434 40346 2403 2685 6786 6786 0 108837 102228 6609 0 0 40 36 4 0 9544 7635 1909 10460 9955 505 4708 2273 2435 OTHER COSTS 20409 19461 948 OTHER PROGRAM EXPENSES 8851 8851 STORE SUPPLIES 6192 6192 GIFTS TO OTHER LOCAL MINISTRY 5940 5940 0 842259 721574 108473 12212 92494 115390 80469 88207 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 93486 44395 32919 49091 10364 899 1824 2087 0 0 7200 9492 225270 265166 1836 2874 1836 2874 X 212373 255561 11061 6731 223434 262292 225270 265166 38560 298 X false false false X 201163 189041 246732 183321 244704 1064961 252339 230700 387850 468587 634038 1973514 0 0 0 453502 419741 634582 651908 878742 3038475 0 0 3038475 151 136 292 509 3012 4100 0 151 136 292 509 3012 4100 406 49148 63266 842 250 113912 0 454059 469025 698140 653259 882004 3156487 0.96260 0.95650 0.00130 0.00040 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 24050 2767 21283 43775 27958 15817 25661 13670 11991 49091 CREDIT CARD PAYABLE 163 CREDIT CARD PAYABLE 2692 PAYROLL TAXES 19 2874 Form 990, Part III, Line 4d OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: OTHER ACCOMPLISHMENTS - Church Relations & Development Our primary ministry focus is to mobilize churches to change lives and communities.
