We meet at Lutheran Chapel, 702 N. New Hope Road, Gastonia, NC.

In early November, about 30 people from our community attended a free Bible in an Hour presentation led by Pastor Jeff Ware of All Saints Lutheran Church in Charlotte. This led to a great discussion about how the stories in the Bible fit into one grand narrative and how God’s Word is still relevant today.

This past summer, Life in Christ Lutheran Church raised enough money to provide 50 new pack n plays for local parents in need of a safe place for their infants to sleep. Underserved families without cribs may allow their babies to sleep in bed with them, potentially smothering or otherwise harming them.

Our church was honored to partner with Gaston County Health and Human Services and delivered the pack n plays in September so they can be distributed as needed. Life in Christ will continue to work with the county to help replenish their supply in an effort to ensure that every family has a secure place for their children to sleep.

In November, members of our church packed 100 Blessing Bags for those in our community who are homeless. These heavy duty bags included a sleeping bag and pillow, hat, scarf, gloves, socks, a blanket, bottled water, snacks, a daily prayer booklet, and toiletries like toothpaste, deodorant, chapstick, a comb, shaving cream, nail clippers, and hand warmers.

Fifty bags were delivered to Gaston County Health and Human Services, with 50 more ready to go once those have been distributed. A big thanks to DHHS for handing out these necessities during the colder months as we work together to help those in need.
