For years, churches have collected and distributed clothing and food to help those in need. Obviously, those efforts are short-term and don’t address the main root of poverty – joblessness. What if we started helping people find meaningful work so they could have the dignity of providing for themselves?
Brookwood has recently partnered with True Vine Evangelical Church in Inglenook to offer job skills training, utilizing an 8-week program called Jobs for Life. Here’s a great two-minute promo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UhT-60sw9A
Computer Classes
A computer lab was created in the True Vine Tarver Center. Several times a year there are one day a week for 10 weeks introductory computer classes offered at the computer lab. If you are interested in assisting with the classes please contact George Jones.
