Baptism is a practice of recognizing and responding to God’s abundant love and grace.  Regardless of tradition of immersion, sprinkling or pouring of the water, Baptism is a gift of living water and welcome!

Wellington Heights Community Church is seeking financial sponsors and volunteer support for the 5th Annual Celebration of Motherhood. Interested in supporting the event? Please email office@wellingtonheightscommunitychurch.org for further information.

The Assessment Phase is completed after surveying 200 neighbors! The Focused Community Strategies group in Atlanta is currently compiling the data, which takes about a month. During this timeframe the Flourishing Neighborhood Index team will receive training on leading the listening sessions with neighbors and are preparing for those meetings.

If you would like to be part of the conversations, please email Ashley office@wellingtonheightscommunitychurch.org or Carol carol@wellingtonheightscommunitychurch.org.

History

The need for accessible laundry support has been recognized since the earliest days of Wellington Heights Community Church. Early efforts included providing financial assistance and transportation to local laundromats. Over time, conversations with neighbors and the staff team highlighted a shared hope to one day offer free laundry services directly at the church.

In the aftermath of the Derecho, the church connected to bring the 8 Days of Hope Laundry Truck, providing free laundry services to the neighborhood. This effort once again highlighted the community’s voiced need for accessible, no-cost laundry services and reinforced the church's vision of sustainably offering such support.

Vision

Loads of Love offers free laundry services at the Wellington Heights Community Church Peace House. Loads of Love seeks to create a safe, welcoming space where neighbors can do laundry while fostering opportunities for connection. Wellington Heights Community Church provides all necessary laundry supplies, with staff and volunteers present to engage in conversation and build relationships, as desired by participants.

Next Steps

On Wednesday, Feb 26th, we will begin by offering free laundry services in the Peace House for one resident in the community each week. The church will provide all necessary equipment and supplies, and a staff member or volunteer will be present for conversation and relationship-building, if desired by the participant. Our hope is that others (like yourselves!) will eventually join this ministry so that laundry services are available 2-3 different times throughout the week.

If you are interested in volunteering for this test-run ministry, please email Lewis at lewis@wellingtonheightscommunitychurch.org, or talk to him about it in person! The time commitment would be about 2-3 hours on a single day of the week.

The next youth group will be on Wednesday, January 8th.
