about us

Kingdom Life Community Resource Center is a faith-based, not-for-profit human services organization founded in 1992. Not only does it serve the congregants of Kingdom Life Christian Church, but it serves people of all faiths who live and work in its community. The programs and services offered by the KLCRC are designed to fulfill its mission of empowering people with the knowledge, skills, and tools to lead independent, balanced, and successful lives.
KLCRC offers classes, support groups, pastoral counseling, and on-going programs in the areas of parenting, marriage (and marriage preparation), personal growth and development, education, and finance. Should the needs of a client reach beyond the capacity or capability of our developing referral service KLCRC will assist our clients in finding organizations within the community that will address their needs.
Joseph's Storehouse, our primary outreach ministry is a benevolent service which provides "like-new" furniture items to those who cannot afford to purchase them. We have expanded our services to now include a Food Pantry and Supply Center offering non-perishable food items and basic household items to those experiencing financial hardship.
Whether attending a KLCRC class, working with a mentor, or participating in a facilitated group session, the love, care and professionalism of the KLCRC staff and volunteers model what service truly is when the principles of faith are put into action. Their sole purpose is to serve God’s people in a way that uplifts them, their families and their community, so that they, too, will “soar on wings like eagles.” (Isaiah 40:31)
