TOOLBOX MINISTRY

Small Repairs, Big Impact

The Toolbox Ministry is neighbors helping neighbors by providing minor home and yard repairs to seniors, widows, single parents, and anyone else needing tangible help.

What’s nice about the Toolbox Ministry is that you have access to a group of men and women who have varied skill sets and they are willing to share their talents with you!

“This is one way that Woodcreek can extend God's love and compassion to a special community both inside and outside the walls of Woodcreek Church. This also allows volunteers to work and fellowship side-by-side with Woodcreek Church members helping those who may no longer be able to help themselves” - Ken Fentress
