Community Outreach
Hesed House
More than thirty years ago, leaders of 6 Aurora churches committed to provide a “port in the storm” for homeless individuals and families.
The Annunciation Church community supported this organization as it evolved into a dynamic ministry that provides shelter from the elements, food, clothing, and essential support services to those in desperate situations.
Hesed House sees sixteen newly homeless individuals each week; that’s one new homeless individual every 10 ½ hours. The comprehensive support services result in successfully transitioning almost twenty individuals out of homelessness each week.
Fox Valley Volunteer Hospice
Fox Valley Volunteer Hospice is a non-profit, volunteer based, community funded organization that provides practical, spiritual, and emotional support to individuals (and their families) with life threatening and/or terminal illnesses.
The hospice ministry is truly caring for your “flock.” Whether sitting in prayer or comforting silence with a family and their loved one or providing meals, companionship, or respite, you are providing an invaluable service.
All care is available without charge regardless of age, diagnosis, prognosis, income level, Medicare eligibility, race, or creed.
Seasons Hospice & Palliative Care
The mission of Seasons Hospice is to find creative solutions that add quality to end-of-life care with a focus on patient and family.
Facing an end-of-life illness or the death of a loved one is profound. These months, days, weeks and moments can be among life’s most precious, and that is precisely the reason that Seasons Hospice exists.
We will do everything in our power to ease pain and provide physical and emotional comfort and support for our patients and their families and friends.
Seasons Hospice bills directly to Medicare, Medicaid, and/or private insurance for comprehensive hospice care.
