Working Together • Serving the Kingdom

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 August 29th & 30th!

Due to information needed by SPP, registration for Single Parent Provision will closed on Monday, August 17th at 6pm!

All other serving opportunities will be open for registration until Monday, August 24th at 6:00pm
