Send Me Service Weekend — April 21 & 22
Christian writer, Wayne Gillis, closed a thought-provoking article about servanthood with this: "I wonder what would happen if we — both individually and as churches — asked ourselves, 'How can I give myself away for the gospel today?' We just might just turn the world upside down."
"Turn the world upside down" — this is what we want to do in our neighborhood and community — we want to ask how we can give ourselves away for the gospel today.
As we think through the implications of that question, may we have the same answer that the prophet Isaiah gave when the Lord asked whom shall He send to tell the people about His works: "Send me."
May we be willing to go, serve and extend the hand of Jesus. May our cup of cold water be a hot meal to the hungry, words of encouragement to the lonely, acts of service to the needy and kindness to those who need it.
Send Me Service Projects
Our current list of available service projects can be downloaded as a PDF brochure or viewed online.
Sign-up Sundays in the Atrium are April 1 and 15. Due to space restrictions, online registrations are only available for a limited time. You may register online during the week, specifically Tuesday through Friday from April 3-April 6 and April 10-April 13. Otherwise, please register on Sunday morning in the Atrium.
As you register in the Atrium to participate in one of our outreach projects, you will notice that some of the sign-up sheets are blocked out with a gray box. This indicates that a project is full. If you would really like to be a part of that project, you can sign up in that gray box as an alternate. In the event that someone has to cancel their participation, the project manager will begin to contact those registered as alternates. Feel free to sign-up for several projects if more than one piques your interest.
If you're unable to volunteer you can still participate! We always require donations of various items to help make the Send Me Service Weekend a success. Please visit our donation page for a complete list of needed supplies.
