In 2 Corinthians, the apostle Paul describes a church that is a community of faith and reciprocity, a community where people care for each other out of a commitment to one another and to God.

This sense of koinonia--of fellowship and partnership--thrives in Lighthouse. It exists in the volunteer hours dedicated to people in need, in the in-kind donations, and in the financial support. Through collective efforts and shared resources, we to reach out to the hurting, the isolated and the impoverished with God's grace and love.

Lighthouse Ministries is funded separately from the Mariners Church operating budget. This means that Lighthouse does not rely on tithes given to the church to operate its ministries. Our funding comes directly from you, the generous people of our church and community, through gifts designated to Lighthouse.
