We are a Christian Community Center that welcomes all. Our focus is to provide support to individuals through their daily struggles of life, to provide what they need most in order to be happier, healthier people, and families. To equip them to do fulfilling work as productive members of this society, and to find others in need. To walk alongside us, and to provide, as they have been provided. Our Vision is to serve those in the multi-cultural and multi-ethnic communities within Naples, Naples Park, Naples Manor, Golden Gate and Immokalee, all communities located in Collier County.

Organizational Overview

The focus of the Pelican Community Center and Lutheran Church is to assist the immigrant adult population through instruction to learn the English language. The goal is to achieve independence and empowerment through ESL classes. The power of literacy is not just the ability to read and write. It is for each person to apply these skills and to effectively connect, decipher, and recognize the complexities of the world in which they live.
