Sarah Shaver talks with Colleen Lankford, Executive Director of Christian Help, serving persons with both emergency assistance as well as tools for a more stable future. Lankford says their ideal is to serve people with immediacy and simplicity and that they also serve their volunteers and donors. She says the faith-based ministry grew from one woman seeing a need and striving to meet it. Lankford states they often take their services to clients during work and school hours and they also help with emotional and spiritual stability. Lankford believes their amazing staff has a calling to be at Christian Help. ((304) 296-0221)
