Financial Help at the Vineyard
The Vineyard Church offers financial assistance to individuals and families through the Seeds of Hope compassion ministry and the New Focus financial freedom course.
Seeds of Hope
Seeds of Hope is an assistance ministry that is funded by members of the Vineyard through an annual Christmas season collection (click here for information on the fund). Assistance is granted when the health, safety or welfare of a person/family is in danger. Application requires a meeting with a assistance counselor and a church ministry leader. Please download and complete the form to apply.
Seeds of Hope Assistance Application
Monthly Food Pantry
We offer three months "no strings attached" food assistance for individuals or families living in need. After three months, we ask that you complete our Seeds of Hope "assistance application" and discuss your need with a financial counselor.
Our food pantry is hosted at The Vineyard Church facility and is generally open on a first come, first served basis from 9-11 am on the third Saturday of every month. Call (616) 365-0303 or email to confirm availability.
Recipients will be asked to complete an intake form, available here for your convenience.
