Benevolence is a Ministry of Parkview Church intended to assist church members, regular attenders or those connected to Parkview ministries for basic needs for food, shelter, and family support. It is intended to be a one-time gift after the family or individual has explored other possibilities of help from family, friends, savings, or investments. In very unusual situations a follow-up request may be considered but will require further clarification of need, financial counseling and support from the Deacon Team.
