COMPASS
The COMPASSion Ministry of the SWMA
Meeting Needs in Our Wawasee Community
Our goal is to compassionately connect with our neighbors to provide hope, comfort and resources along with spiritual and practical direction to those who find themselves in need in the Wawasee area while coming into closer fellowship with those in our community.
We all, at some point life, find ourselves in a tough spot. Compass wants to connect with those who are facing hardship due to job loss, illness or accident. We provide assistance with rent/mortgage payments.
