Southside Life Station-NWOBA:
This ministry is actually a ministry of the NWOBA. Many New Heights members participate in this ministry. Located at 402 South St. in Toledo the Life Station. Persons receive an emergency supply of food. During the stay at home many thousands families were helped with immediate emergency food assistance/clothing. Referrals are accepted from known churches and local help agencies from all over the city. This was accomplished through walk-up service and DELIVERY service. More information about the services are available on the life station page which has a link above. The Life Station continues primarily on the good graces of God but His faithfulness to provide persons who will donate financially and/or supplies has been amazing. If you would be interested in donating supplies or financially to this critical ministry please contact the Life Station at 419-243-1255.
Since before the stay at home order the Life station delivers emergency food supplies to those in need. Potential clients can call the call center at 419-242-3340 or go to the life station link above for additional information and/or to register for assitance. If you don't need this help you may need to help. Financial giving, donating needed supplies, praying, volunteering, and promoting are ways you can pitch in.
