MY LIFE CLINIC

My Life Clinic exists to meet the needs of women and families, facing an unplanned pregnancy. By aiding and advocating for expecting women, it is our hope that she be completely informed, supported and secure in choosing life for her unborn child. 

My Life Clinic offers free medical services, parenting support and baby equipment to women and families in our local community.

SAFE FAMILIES

This ministry is a movement of the Church to care for the most vulnerable people group in our society: our children and their families. At the core of the ministry is hosting children to create extended family-like supports for desperate families through a community of compassionate volunteers motivated by their faith to keep children safe and families intact. There is so much more that makes this ministry so special and so tailored to anyone who wants to help (even those with limited time, interest, or resources).

LOVE COLUMBIA

Love Columbia empowers volunteers — from Forum and many more churches — to get involved in the life of others to help people with a hand up rather than a hand out. Love Columbia truly is the intersection of needs and resources. Would you reach out and help ?   God does amazing things with his servant's hands and feet. For your next step, reach out to Rod Petersen - Forum's Community Engagement Director - at Rod@forumchristian.org.   He'll help you to see how others in your Forum church family have gotten involved. For more on volunteer opportunities, you can reach out to Ashlin Maessen -  Volunteer Coordinator at Love Columbia - at ashlinm@lovecolumbia.org.
