Love INC Mission

To mobilize local Christian churches to transform lives and communities through relationships, In the Name of Christ

Love INC of Sheboygan County is one of more than a hundred Love INC locations across the United States and Kenya, who partner with over 7,800 Christian churches to serve hundreds of thousands of people in need.

Our local Love INC serves families who reside in Sheboygan County or attend one of our Love INC partner churches. How? By mobilizing local churches to transform lives and communities In the Name of Christ. Here’s why that works:

Without Love INC

Churches serve their communities in different ways. One area may have a financial literacy program, while another has housing assistance. Yet, when care is not coordinated, needs can be overlooked or duplicated, and people are not served in a holistic manner.

With Love INC

Love INC fosters collaboration and organizes holistic care to help churches serve their neighbors through resources and relationships. By networking churches together, each church is able to lean into their strengths, knowing that their neighbors will be cared for by the body of Christ within their community.

Currently in Sheboygan County, we operate 3 different types of ministry programs:
Connection Center
Our Connection Center or call center is where we receive requests for assistance and listen to each individual story. This is where the relationship with our neighbors usually begins and is the foundation of trust and support.
Gap Ministry

Our Gap Ministry programs are the products and services that meet an immediate physical need. We do our best to continue the relationship with each individual with prayers and encouragement while addressing a specific need. 

Transformational Ministry

We offer 5 life-skills classes through our New Way Community within our Transformational Ministry. During these 10 or 12 week courses, we are able to walk alongside each person with Biblical-based curriculum that addresses a variety of human needs—affirmation of potential; relationship boundaries; financial stability; and nutrition and care for our bodies.

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.
