COMMUNITY OUTREACH<\/h2>

Through Wave City Care, Wave Church reaches out to bless our community every year. We believe God has placed us in our city\u00a0for\u00a0<\/span>our city. We’ve partnered with women’s shelters, health clinics, soup kitchens, and families in need all throughout our community and there’s still so much to do. Whether its providing Thanksgiving dinners, or surprising a family with Christmas presents, Wave City Care is determined to be the answer wherever our community has need.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
