Our mission and vision
Love INC Newberg is one of more than a hundred Love INC locations across the United States and Kenya, who partner with over 7,800 Christian churches to serve hundreds of thousands of people in need.
Our local Love INC serves families who reside in the Newberg area. How? By mobilizing local churches to transform lives and communities In the Name of Christ. Here’s why that works:
Churches serve their communities in different ways. One church may have a financial literacy program, while another has housing assistance. Yet, when care is not coordinated, needs can be overlooked or duplicated, and people are not served in a holistic manner.
With Love INC
Love INC fosters collaboration and organizes holistic care to help churches serve their neighbors through resources and relationships. By networking churches together, each church is able to lean into their strengths, knowing that their neighbors will be cared for by the body of Christ within their community.
Our Partner Churches
Christian churches from across at least six denominations partner together to form a Love INC. Within these partnerships, Love INC serves as the scaffolding upon which greater growth is possible. However, it is the Christians in these churches who model Christ’s love and answer God’s call to serve. Working together as the body of Christ, we can best love and serve our community.

A woman experiencing houselessness came to us for an intake appointment. During the conversation, she began to weep, overwhelmed by her situation.

Pedaling Toward Hope: A Community’s Act of Kindness

Through the Lens of God’s grace
A client “Linda” walked into Love INC needing a lot—food, clothes, gas cards, and help with her dogs. On top of that, Linda wanted support to get her life back on track—finding work, legal aid, and even a place of her own.
