Local Missions

Reaching our community as we serve together!
Southern Lakes Church Community Impact Team (CIT) focuses on local missions. We value those in our community and endeavor through Christ to reach others for His Kingdom. CIT commits to local missions through financial provision and volunteer projects. Each spring, our Show Love weekend puts the hands and feet of Jesus into action through service projects supporting various local entities and community members in need of assistance.

Agape House (AH)
AH in Walworth, WI, began in 1997 as God’s calling to trust that provisions would be supplied for a unique ministry. It initially served preteen and teenage girls but has since expanded to include boys affected by abuse. AH offers housing, meals, schooling, counseling, and Christian guidance to assist with healing and maturation in a safe, secure, loving home environment. Staff, volunteers, and donations sustain this ministry.
