Living Word Christian Center Leads the Way on Good Neighbor Day

On May 16, 2026, the Living Word Christian Center (LWCC) will serve as Chicago’s flagship location for Good Neighbor Day, a nationwide initiative focused on community service and outreach. This significant event will take place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in front of the Forest Park Plaza at 7630 West Roosevelt Road.

Good Neighbor Day exemplifies the vision of combining spiritual, practical, and economic support through collective community effort. LWCC is mobilizing local volunteers, churches, and organizations to extend their hands and hearts to individuals and families in need across the Chicagoland area.

A Day of Support

The day promises a plethora of services aimed at addressing various needs. Participants can expect to find free food distributions, generous clothing donations, health and fitness demonstrations from the Kingdom Running Club, and financial literacy workshops provided by Joseph Wealth Management. Additionally, the event will feature an expungement clinic courtesy of the church's R.I.S.E. prison ministry, alongside sessions on entrepreneurship sponsored by the Joseph Center, focused on helping attendees learn how to start and grow their businesses.

Moreover, attendees will have the comfort of receiving spiritual encouragement, as prayer volunteers will be available offering support and guidance throughout the day. The involvement of national partner Chick-fil-A adds an extra touch, providing free sandwiches to those attending.

The Local Church's Role

Pastor David Winston, son of Dr. Bill Winston and director of Bill Winston Ministries, emphasized the crucial role local churches play during economic hardships. "The local church has always been a pillar of the community, and pillars offer support, especially when things get heavy. We're here so people don't have to shoulder the weight of these economic challenges alone," he stated. The Pastor's words resonate with LWCC's mission of delivering hope and relief through practical actions.

Living Word Christian Center is deeply committed to community impact and faith-based outreach that empowers individuals. Hosting Good Neighbor Day further showcases LWCC's dedication to finding and implementing solutions that uplift individuals and strengthen families, proving that their influence extends far beyond church walls.
