Our Mission

 
Our mission is to provide long term and
temporary assistance to those
who have fallen on difficult times in hopes
of returning them to the independent pursuit
of their life’s goals.
 

History

 

Ten local pastors started Active Faith as a non-denominational, non-discriminating, licensed, 501C 3 charity in 1987. For 22 years, Active Faith Community Services has worked with low-income households residing within our 84 square mile rural school district. We were established as a food pantry and clothing closet and we have never veered from that original mission which was to help individuals become self sufficient and realizing that it is only as we develop others that we permanently succeed.
 
Active Faith is constantly changing to meet the needs of the community.  It's important to remember in this climate of job loss, many income levels will need help.  We can steer you to the right agencies even when you are NOT low income.  Get through the maze a little easier by starting at Active Faith.
