Donations and Support of God's True Vine Outreach Center Lake County is the poorest county in Michigan; here are some of the latest statistics: Our Outreach Center is located in Idewild, which is a small portion of Lake County. The population estimate of 2006 is 11,793. 20% are under the age of 18, and 20% are over the age of 65. The population has only increased by 4.1% over the past 6 years. 47.8% of the population are female. As of the year 2000, above the age of 5, the disability number was 3,169. Statistics for 2007 are unclear. Persons per household was reported at 2.28, average income was $27,868, and the below poverty level was 19.7%. The land area for Lake County is only 567.44 sq. miles, or 20 people per square mile. Our church has purchased the 17,000 sq. ft. building to be an outreach for all people, young to old, and physically and mentally able or challenged. All are welcome. With a building of this size, we know the utilities will be high, and we all have many visions for this facility. You can check out our photo gallery to see what we are currently offering, and since we are aware the heat and electric can become very expensive, we would ask that you pray to see where God could be leading in a donation or as a partner, because we would like to offer everything free, if possible, by the help of the volunteers He sends. If 12 Disciples could change the world, just think what 12 servants can do for Lake County. Pastor Everett Bowen
