7 Emergency Shelters in Greensboro, Jamestown, High Point & Summerfield, 2023

Join us for Church!

We would love to meet and connect with you, and support you in your faith journey.

Definition Church cares deeply for this community and we have found the best way to serve our city is to partner financially, through serving, or both, with various organizations in our community who do an incredible job caring for those in need. While we are unable to provide direct housing, financial, or social services, we would be happy to connect you with the organizations in our community that may be able to provide assistance. We invite you to connect with us for spiritual support and prayer during difficult times. Our hearts are with you, and we hope these resources can help point you in a positive direction. Please reach out if we can provide additional support.
