WE CARE Ministries invites you to join us in loving God and loving people by volunteering with us! Without our volunteers, we would be unable to do even a small fraction of what we do. Make a difference today!
Assisting the
Communities
of Weakley County
since 1973
WE CARE Ministries is an ecumenical Christ-centered ministry that exists to share the love of Christ beyond the physical help of the moment. Our purpose is to draw people closer to Christ by helping to meet their basic financial needs in times of crisis or transition according to biblical directives. WE CARE becomes a link to join those who desire to use their resources to help others with those who are in need of assistance.

Help Sometimes
WE CARE Ministries offers Direct Aid for assistance with utilities and rent up to $350, requiring volunteer repay work to be done within 60 days. This is not to be seen as an ongoing handout, but a help-up.
We would like to say a big thank you to one of our star volunteers! We love and appreciate our volunteers and want to acknowledge each and every one of them. Thank you for all that you do for our community and for us! Our volunteer of the month for September is Mr. Don Jock!
If you want to become a WE CARE Volunteer, come by our office Monday through Thursday, 9:00 - 4:00, and speak with our Director, Angie Schott. 'Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due ; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour. ' Romans 13:7 KJV
