As an extension of the outreach ministries of the Christian churches in the Wolfeboro area, the mission and purpose of L.I.F.E.

LIFE Ministries serves the community by providing access to food security with dignity and respect. This effort is grounded in the words of Jesus: “Truly. I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me.” (Matthew 25:40)
