Serve

“Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?” Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the greatest and first commandment. And a second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’” (Matthew 22:36-39)

At the center of Christian life is service to others. We are called to share in God’s work by loving and serving all those in need, in this neighborhood and in the world.

There are service opportunities regularly. The next service opportunities are:

  • Feeding Efforts: Opportunities to volunteer on Friday afternoon, Friday evening, Saturday morning, to help get groceries, produce, and meals in the hands of hundreds of local families. Use this volunteer intake form and this volunteer shift form for more information and to get involved.
  • Youth Mentoring Program: Every Thursday, 5:00pm-6:30pm. Work one-on-one with 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students on math, reading, and physical fitness. Make a huge difference in the life of one of our neighborhood young people. Returning in Winter 2025
  • Monthly Saturday Clean-Up Crew, on an irregular basis. Share coffee & donuts, plus get busy outside in the alley, sidewalks, and gutters to make sure our church and our block are looking their best. A quick and satisfying way to get started on a Saturday.
