Know Jesus. Experience Community. Serve your world.
As Christ followers, reaching out to our family, friends, neighbors and community is an everyday expression of our love for Jesus. Seeing people as Jesus sees people means getting outside our comfort zone and intentionally and continually serving them, in an effort to point them to the One who can meet their every need. You are called to act; to Serve Your World. It's Your Move!
"Spend yourselves on behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed." Isaiah 58: 10

Projects for Families Leaf Raking
"We came, we saw, we raked!"
Your family can rake one or more homes on a single Saturday morning. Maybe you don't like raking your own yard; but when you're with your family or with a group of friends serving in the name of Christ, a chore becomes a joy. Many yards take only fifteen to twenty minutes to polish off. Thanksgiving: House-to-House Turkey Dinners
Turkey dinner: Great for needy areas! Identify one or more needy families and make a turkey basket, complete with everything the family will need for a Thanksgiving feast. For help finding needy families, go to specific shut-ins or families that you know are in need. Or, call local nonprofits and ask them who you can help. Christmas Tree Giveaway
A few days before Christmas, lot owners are willing to give the trees away. With pickup trucks, vans, or SUVs, deliver them to financially stretched single parent families.
