Congregational Care

Congregational Care at Little Chapel on the Boardwalk, guided by our Deacon Jeannie Willets, is dedicated to supporting members through various life challenges. Understanding the transformative power of care in discipleship, the church offers personalized support for those dealing with loss, COVID-related struggles, addiction, trauma, mental health issues, or spiritual growth. This section includes options for directed support like sending a card, meal, completing an errand, or visiting. We encourage members to fill out a Care form. We emphasize walking alongside each individual to find hope, help, and healing in Jesus, reinforcing a message of empathy, support, and community connection.

At Little Chapel on the Boardwalk, we are deeply committed to supporting you through prayer. Whether it's for yourself or someone you know, our team is honored to bring your requests before God. We regularly dedicate time to pray for each request we receive, ensuring that your concerns are heard and lifted up in faith. Let us join you in seeking comfort, guidance, and strength through prayer.

This welcoming house is designed to be a comfortable retreat for those engaged in meaningful mission work in the area.

OUR STORY

Eden Village

We have made service our habit. We built a house called Safe Harbor in Eden Village so that a man in Wilmington who didn't have a place to lay his head found shelter he could call home.
