WESTVILLE, N.J. – Bethlehem Baptist Church and Victory in Christ Christian Center cohosted a community festival on Victory in Christ Christian Centers campus.
Free eye and hearing screenings were available courtesy of Virtua Pediatric Mobile Services along with Complete Care checking blood pressure and giving out free rapid HIV testing.
Jasmine Moore is the Executive Director of the Victory House at Victory in Christ Christian Center, and she says it’s about the needs of the community not how many new members are attending church.
“The value in investing in your community is doing something larger than yourself,” said Moore. “We’re able to show the community we care, we love them, and we want to give back.”
