We believe that as His disciples we need to
LEAD through humble servant hood, by being on mission with God to be a LIGHT shining in the darkness. We accomplish this by serving one another in the various ministries at Lighthouse Alliance Community Church. We share the light and love of Jesus with the lost, not only by our words, but by our actions, as we live our lives each day here in our community.
Pinelands Regional High School & Middle School Team Outreach
Leading through humble servant hood, and Lighting the way, we welcome the school’s sports teams to use our facility. This is free of charge, for their end of the season team banquets. Each year we have hosted over 15 sports teams, totaling over 500 students - parents and coaches have also attended these very important and memorable dinners. Our goal is to continue to offer a positive experience with use of our facility to the students, faculty, and parents of Pinelands Regional School District.
Food Pantry
Mark 12:31 "
Love your neighbor as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these."
We are connected with The Greater Tuckerton Food Pantry. Please visit their facebook page for hours of operation. www.facebook.com/tuckertonfoodpantry. If you are already connected there and still have a need, we have a section of our church set aside as a supplemental food pantry to assist with that. We receive donations from members of our church, people in the community and local supermarkets.
Thanksgiving
Lead. We believe that as His disciples, we need to lead through humble servanthood.
For close to a decade now, we have been putting Thanksgiving baskets together for our church and community family.
We adopt a number of families and provide them with a Thanksgiving basket filled with all the Thanksgiving holiday trimmings. This is made possible through the generous donations given by our church members, along with many others from within our community.
Christmas
Light. We believe as His disciples we are on a mission with God to be a light shining in the darkness. We work with two other local churches to fill the needs during Christmas in our community. Please call the church office to more information.
Family Promise
Today, hundreds of thousands of Americans –children and adults- are homeless. Family Promise is a non profit, non denominational organization for families in transition. Family Promise brings shelter, meals and support services to families without homes. This organization works along side of churches, social services and many other organizations to help these families find permanent housing and jobs. 70% of the families that participate in this program find jobs and homes. We currently are a Host Site. Three weeks out of the year we Host up to 15 people. We work alongside of Family Promise and provide within our facility housing, food and transportation to and from the Day Site. This requires many volunteers from within the church as well as in the community. For more information on this program or if you would like to be a part of this life changing initiative, please visit the
