SIGN GOES UP!
Thank you Friendly Signs Company
We want to thank our church members as well as many of our friends and
acquaintances throughout the community who helped to establish and open the
clinic for the purpose of it being a "Faith-Based Clinic" to reach the lost
through medicine. To all that helped established the clinic, we want you to
know that our church is no longer a part of the New Life Pentecostal Medical
Clinic (People's Clinic) due to circumstances beyond our control. We hope the clinic will continue
to serve the community. Pentecostal Community Church (formally "New Life
Church") is currently not holding services nor providing ministry to the
patients at the clinic that it helped establish. Below are comments and photos
of many of the things that were donated to the church clinic, as well as individuals that helped. Pentecostal Community Church will always be grateful for the kindness
and will never forget your generosity.
Jesus said..."It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but
the sick." (Luke 5:31-32)

Pastor Garcia was selected by the Kankakee
"The Daily Journal" newspaper as "Citizen of the Year" for 2011.

Mr. Kinzinger said that he was very impressed with the clinic. He related to everyone present that his father was also involved in something very similar to the clinic in the Bloomington area.

Miss Illinois(2011), Whitney Thorpe-Klinsky, came to our first fundraiser. Miss Kankakee was also present. Miss Illinois spoke about the need for free medical assistance and gave her own personal story of how it helped her family. Afterwards, Whitney was given a tour of the clinic.

Another great event that raised funds for the clinic. Thanks to all that helped, we had a great time and turn out!
