Working Together • Serving the Kingdom

We're excited to bring back one of our favorite events - 5th Sunday!

Every month that has a 5th Sunday this year, we will participate in service projects throughout the metro - with serving opportunities spread across Saturday and Sunday of that weekend.

Our desire is to be a blessing to our local community and strengthen the relationships within our own body by serving alongside one another. We want our practice to match our beliefs - to worship in Spirit and truth while thinking more highly of others than we do ourselves, and using our resources to serve them.

We encourage you to get involved and help us share the sacrificial love of Christ with our neighbors!

Our next 5th Sunday Weekend is March 28th & 29th!

Registration closes at 8:00 am Monday, March 23rd!
