Events
Serve Sunday October 1 • Sign up to Volunteer
On October 1 we’ll gather for worship, grab some breakfast, and then scatter to serve! We will have several options for you to choose from and sign up for.
Following worship and breakfast, we will head to on-campus and off-campus locations to make a difference and shine the light of Jesus. There will be something for everyone to do, including options for families to serve together. Watch for signup info coming soon!
Mercy Meals will sponsor the breakfast on Serve Sunday. Freewill offerings will purchase ingredients for Mercy Meals that we’ll package on a future date. These packaged meals will be sent all over the world to people in need.
