God has given spiritual gifts to every single one of His people for the purpose of building up the church. And we believe that God has equipped you with everything you need to do His work. And He desires that you would give of your time, talents, and treasure for the sake of the Kingdom.
Wildwood has many ways for individuals to put their gifting to work by serving the Lord and one another. As you explore the ministry needs both inside and outside our church- prayerfully consider how you can use what God has given you for His glory.
Our Father's Storehouse (OFS) is a food and clothing ministry for our neighbors in need that meets the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of every month at Wildwood Church with a Bible study at 4 pm and food distribution from 5-7 pm. Special events include the annual Back to School Bash (August) and OFS Thanksgiving.
In addition to distributing groceries and clothing, volunteers pray with neighbors and share the good news of Jesus. Volunteers are always welcome to join us in serving freely!
Do you have a passion to come alongside families who are in crisis? Safe Families creates an extended family-like support system for vulnerable families right here in Tallahassee. When a crisis strikes, many of us rely on relatives and friends for support. But for some parents, this is not an option. They have no one to call. You can be a solution to that problem.
Safe Families hosts children and supports parents facing a crisis so they can get back on their feet. Whenever possible, Safe Families seeks to intervene before Foster Care. Safe Families are a community of devoted volunteers who are motivated by faith to keep children safe and keep families together.
There are many different entry points into the Safe Families community where you can be trained and serve:
Be a Host Family: voluntarily host children in your home on a temporary basis.
Be a Family Friend: encourage and support host families and families in need.
Be a Resource Friend: provide good and services to families in need.
Be a Family Coach: help families reach their goal and provide encouragement to host families.
