Last month, we had the opportunity to partner with Evereve in South Barrington for a special “Style With Purpose” event. We are so grateful for every guest who shopped and supported the Care Center. Your purchases not only added something fun and new to your wardrobe, but helped directly support the work of the Care Center. Thank you for making a difference in your local community!

Our garden group is off to a great start for the summer! Their first project was to beautify the garden entrance by adding flowers. Last Saturday, the team helped plant three types of peppers, tomatoes, and basil.

We would love some extra hands to help tend to and grow the garden produce that will be used to stock the Care Center Food Store. The garden group meets every Saturday from 9 a.m.-12 p.m.; learn more at willowcreek.org/groups.

What a fun afternoon we had celebrating our volunteers this past Sunday. Our Local C&J volunteers gathered as one team to enjoy lunch and hear some highlights from this year. Huge shoutout to BBQ On Wheels for providing grilled-on-site burgers, hot dogs, and chicken, which were accompanied by delicious potluck sides.

Every shift at the Care Center begins with prayer. Volunteers gather together to prepare for the shift and pray for each other and the guests: the is the rhythm and routine of every Care Center shift. Here are our Thursday evening Hospitality and Food/Warehouse Teams. These teams become more than a place to serve; they become communities that live and grow together.

There are plenty of ways to serve at the Care Center: with our guests, behind-the-scenes, weekly, once a month, joining a serving group, and more! Whether you’ve served for 10+ years or are thinking of joining a team, there is a place for you here! Visit willowcreek.org/servefinder to learn more and find your team.
