Partnership in Community: Together, We’re Stronger

There’s something special about a community that looks out for one another.

At Love INC Littleton, we believe partnership in community is a giant piece of what it means to love our neighbors well. We were never meant to do this work alone—and we’re grateful for each volunteer, church, business, donor, and community organization that joins us in the work.

This summer, Love INC has had multiple opportunities to celebrate what happens when community comes together.

We gathered Love INC Vision Carriers for a summer picnic—a chance to slow down, share a meal, laugh together, and celebrate the people who faithfully help carry the Love INC vision forward.

We gathered with neighbors for National Night Out, collaborating with the Littleton Police Department and the people who make our community stronger simply by showing up, caring, and connecting.

We also had a pretty exciting reason to raise a banner—actually, two reasons! Renewed Treasures celebrated being recognized with two community awards: Best of Mile High 2026 Gold Winner and Littleton Best of the Best 2026. Those awards are thanks to our incredible shoppers, volunteers, and supporters who make Renewed Treasures an ongoing part of the community. What a joy to celebrate together!

Partnership has also looked as simple—and meaningful—as delivering church partner dashboards. These updates help our church partners see how their people, resources, and prayers are making a difference throughout the community.

And not to be forgotten: local resource fairs the Connection Center staff attends where community organizations come together to connect neighbors with the help they need. Or the many coffees with volunteers and clients across the ministry to say thank you, build relationships, and simply enjoy being together.

Community is about who we become when we serve side by side. It’s one more way we can stay connected and remember that every contribution is part of a much bigger story.

And Love INC is not slowing down as summer comes to a close.

This fall, Love INC heads into church ministry fair season with participation in 11 services over the course of two weekends – a chance to share with individuals and families how they can be part of what God is doing through Love INC. And Love INC hosts the Fall Gala in September, where we’ll focus on gathering financial support for Love INC around the theme, “Weaving a Legacy of Transformed Lives.”

The Apostle Paul reminds us that partnership in community isn’t just practical—it’s something to celebrate with joy:

In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel…” Philippians 1:4–5a

And there is a place FOR YOU in this community.

Every time a church opens its doors, a volunteer offers their time, a donor gives generously, a business joins the mission, a neighbor shares a need, or someone simply says, “How can I help?”—we see the power of partnership in the gospel at work. Whatever your gifts, time, or resources look like, you can be part of meeting needs and transforming lives together with us.

Come find your place in the Love INC community—and let’s continue loving our neighbors in the name of Christ, together.
