Taking the Bible Out of the Box

LIVE-IT Mission

To glorify God, we bring people together through community to meet needs of those socially, physically, emotionally and spiritually isolated and alone.

Our Vision: We envision a world where everyone belongs to a community that loves and cares for them.

It’s our mission to help those who feel lonely feel like they belong. That’s why we work hard to connect people in need with those who want to help and have the ability to do so. Operating as a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization, our main focus is to build relationships and connect people who are experiencing loneliness with people in the community who want to help. We all want to help our neighbors in need!

Together We Can...

Everyone has the ability to help someone else. Many elderly widows are home bound but miss having a connection with others in the community. Many just need a little nudge and encouragement. By helping to build connections with individuals, area organizations and/or church groups we can build a bond that will continue to nurture our neighbors in need.

Meet the Team

While there are hundreds of volunteers that help to facilitate the hands, feet and movement to our effort, here is a little bit about our team leaders.
