HOW TO GET
INVOLVED
Getting involved is simple.
At First Love Church, joining the story is easy — because the good we are doing is something we do together. You can step in by giving financially, helping to fuel the work and reach even further. You can lift up our mission in prayer, blessing the hands and hearts carrying hope into our community and beyond. You can talk to us — stay after a service, reach out online via email, or simply say, "I’m ready to be part of this."
No matter how you start, there’s a place for you in what God is building here.
We can't wait to connect with you and move forward, together.
Ocala Outreach
For over 20 years, we have committed our time and resources to loving our Ocala neighbors. We have faithfully brought food and other essentials to Harvey’s Fellowship of Homes, a 55+ community. Our continued service to these neighbors has led to beautiful friendships and has made a lasting impact on our community. Our care for vulnerable elderly neighbors is an essential part of our mission to love our city.
What We Are Doing.
We gather resources, food, a mixture of fresh and stable pantry items, clothing, and personal hygiene essentials from other non-profits and from generous individuals who are committed to the same good works that we are.
How WE Do It.
Our members and volunteers carefully sort and pack boxes and bags of food and necessities, as well as other items, based on donations. We then load our trucks and deliver them to our neighbors in need.
How we Love
First Love Church is a family — and like every family, we grow stronger when we serve one another. We’re following Jesus, who came not to be served, but to serve — and we believe there's real joy in doing the same.
There’s a place for you here — a way for your gifts, your passions, and even your questions to find a home. We’d love to help you find where you fit in the life of First Love Church.
Let’s build something beautiful together.
Love our city
Once, we were strangers — now, God is forming us into a family.
At First Love Church, dreamers, misfits, and neighbors come together to love, serve, and become more like Jesus.
One simple way we live this out is by caring for the vulnerable among us, giving food and hope to those who need it most.
Every bag of groceries tells a story: you are seen, you are loved, you are not alone.
Join us. Bring your hands, your heart, your strength — and help us end hunger in our city, one neighbor at a time.
Love All People
At First Love Church, you’re invited to bring your honest questions — and find real answers rooted in God’s love.
We’re passionate about helping each other know, love, and serve God by loving all the people He loves.
We partner with organizations working for real, lasting solutions to poverty, believing the local church is one of God’s greatest tools for change.
There’s a place for your heart, your hands, and your story here.
Love THe World
God’s story has always been about love — a love so deep that He gave His only Son to rescue and redeem the world.
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son... not to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved." (John 3:16-17)
At First Love Church, we believe that love moves — it crosses oceans, breaks down walls, and feeds the hungry.
That’s why we support projects around the world that bring real hope to those impacted by poverty and injustice.
You can be part of this story. Your giving fuels real change and real love in places that need it most.
Join us in loving the world the way God does — one act of generosity at a time.
