Faith communities in Knoxville unite each February for a month-long initiative spreading love in our community. During this month, faith communities share a unified, affirming message (through signage and mission) that is centered on the power of LOVE. This endeavor is a powerful signal to Knoxville that our diverse faith communities always have more in common than not. This will be the fifth year of this unique event, and we hope to continue expanding our list of partners.
In addition to our partnering houses of worship (HOW) focusing on community love in their ministry during the month, participating HOW will display event banners (provided) for passersby to see and individuals are invited to purchase and display yard signs.
May our unified messages of love resonate beyond our walls to make an impact in our community, throughout Knoxville, and around the world!
Our Mission:
2024 Service Goal:
In 2024, we are loving our neighbors by feeding our neighbors. Love Your Neighbor is partnering with Second Harvest Food Bank to collect food donations during Second Harvest's slowest season of the year. Love Your Neighbor houses of worship are encouraged, but not obligated to participate ni this year's food drive. Help us reach our goal by signing your house of worship up to collect food!
Individuals can participate!
Drop non-perishable food items off to a participating House of Worship (find a church with a Love Your Neighbor sign, or check out our 2024 partners list)!
