Laundry Love Citrus Heights

We financially support this outreach in Citrus Heights that covers the cost of laundry for people who are struggling financially.  For those living in poverty, washing clothes presents both a logistical problem and a financial hardship.  LLCH washes laundry on the second Saturday of each month from 8am to 11am at Paradise Coin Wash on Greenback Lane. Guests, on average, save over $20 per visit.  They can apply their savings toward food, fuel, medicines and other essentials instead.  Refer those you know that could benefit from this ministry to this local outreach.

Lifting Spirits Higher

Join with a group of local people from different churches, community groups, and organizations to help, encourage, feed, and bring hope to people who are in need by letting them know about the life-changing power of Jesus. Hot meals are being served downtown at the corner of 2110 Del Paso Blvd in Sacramento  every Saturday.

Where: Citrus Heights and the surrounding area
