Transitions can be one of the hardest journeys in life. Moving is one of those difficult journeys, but with loving, kind, and patient support, the move can become a lighter load. The Love INC Moving Ministry does just that, becoming the hands and feet of Christ, with open and willing hearts. Vicki, Moving Ministry Leader, shares, “No matter what we are asked of in the Connection Center, this team always jumps in to help our community!” Recently, a challenging move was presented to this ministry. It was hard, messy work with very cold temperatures and took two days to complete. But what really matters, as Pastor Rob (St. Paul Lutheran Church, Sheboygan Falls) said, “It’s more than helping a neighbor move. It is about walking with the neighbor and listening to them.” As it turns out, a moving volunteer was able to provide a job reference for our neighbor too! It is a blessing to provide the service of helping someone move. It is God’s work when we do it with love, kindness, dignity, and a listening ear. Truly a beautiful partnership between volunteers and our neighbors. To God be the glory!

It is about walking with the neighbor and listening to them.
