Horizons has been a part of kingdom-building by financially supporting, encouraging, and praying for hundreds of children since 2005. Thank you for your commitment to sharing hope, love, and opportunities with children in India.
Project Hope provides children:
Hand in Hand
Horizons has established an ongoing relationship with the Zeman Elementary School community and LPS by providing support and encouragement for the students and staff in various ways.
CARNIVAL HOSTING At Zeman’s carnival, we monitor games and bounce houses. Our carnival support boosts teacher morale and parent-student interaction as teachers and parents can participate in the event.
BOX TOPS FOR EDUCATION Download the Box Tops app and automatically send funds to Zeman when you purchase certain items and scan your receipt.
CLASSROOM TUTOR Assist classroom teachers by listening to students read aloud, helping with spelling words, and practicing math facts.
BACKPACK PROGRAM Horizons supports three schools by packing food in backpacks. In addition, the program seeks to help students who qualify for their school’s Free or Reduced Lunch Programs by providing a food-filled backpack to the child and family over the weekend or during a school break.
Join us in celebrating the 50th birthday Zeman elementary school by volunteering at their Birthday Bash Block Party on September 13th! Help us create a memorable event for students, families, and the community by assisting with games, activities, and more. Your support will make this milestone celebration truly special!

Missions & Miracles
Horizons continuously reaches out and helps the community. We’ve rented storage lockers for those fleeing domestic violence, helped cover the cost of heating and electrical expenses for families in need and more. We’ve provided miracle funding for DZ kids to serve and make blankets, Fusion students to package meals for those in need, and Arise students to go on mission trips. We have blessed so many in our community in a multitude of ways. Thank you again for your support and faithful approach. We’re all in this together. You can help be the unexpected blessing for those in need.
Little Free Pantry
Alex, an Eagle Scout, installed a Free Little Pantry on the grassy island in front of the Horizons Church building. Alex and his family have been part of Horizons for many years, and we are grateful he decided on this for his Eagle Scout Project.
Donate what you can. Barrel in the Atrium if the pantry is full.
Take what you need.

Shining a Brighter Light
Horizons Community Church Goes Solar!
At Horizons Community Church, we strive to be a beacon of hope and compassion in our community and positively influence the world around us. Now, we're taking that a step further by harnessing the power of the sun! We're thrilled to announce that our roof is now equipped with a brand new 28 kW solar panel system consisting of 68 panels.
Why Solar?
We decided to add solar for a number of reasons, all of which align with our value of impacting the world around us:
Environmental Stewardship: By harnessing clean, renewable energy from the sun, we're reducing our footprint on finite resources and creating a healthier planet for future generations.
Financial Responsibility: Solar panels provide significant cost savings on our energy bills. These savings can then be redirected towards supporting our church ministries and outreach programs, allowing us to reach and help more people in our community and beyond.
Leading by Example: We hope our commitment to solar energy inspires others in our community to consider renewable energy options for their homes and businesses. This can have a ripple effect, creating a broader positive environmental impact.
A Heartfelt Thank You
A special thank you to a dedicated community of donors who made our new solar panel system a reality! Their belief in our mission is truly inspiring. This project was accomplished by special donations outside of our general fund. Thanks to these gifts, Horizons Community Church can continue to shine a bright light in our community for years to come and make a lasting impact on the world around us.
Looking to the Future
Horizons Community Church is committed to being a responsible member of our community and a force for positive change in the world. Our solar panel system is one way we're working to create a brighter future for all.
