The church with the red doors has been welcoming residents and visitors to Lake Okeechobee and the glades for over 70 years.
While we are a small church, we have a big community outreach. We maintain a positive presence with a regular calendar of events. With less fanfare, we provide school uniforms, socks, and underwear to the 3 elementary schools in Clewiston. We prepare food baskets for families in need at Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter (and give Christmas gifts to the children in those families). And we also operate a small food pantry at the church office.
