For the second year in a row, members of the Kent Seventh-day Adventist Church will help change oil for single moms and widows.
Last fall, 11 women from the church received oil changes.
“It was so well received and appreciated (last year), we are enlarging the offer,” Pastor Greg Schaller said.
Schaller said during a home group meeting, church members decided to provide the oil changes as their practical service to others.
“We picked single women and widows because sometimes changing the oil can be overlooked and we want to help,” he said.
The oil changes are done by those church members who came up with the idea to provide the services.
And Schaller said this time, the church is partnering with the O’Reilly Auto Parts in Kent who will provide the oil and filters.
The church will have enough oil and filters to help 30 women.
The oil changes will take place at the church from 2 to 4:30 p.m. on Sunday, April 26.
Schaller said the oil changes are limited to single women and widows from Kent.
To participate in the event Sunday, Schaller said people must call the church and make an appointment and provide what type of car to ensure the correct filter and oil is used.
The Kent Seventh-day Adventist Church is located at 25213 116th Ave SE and their phone number is 253-852-3883.
