A DAY SET ASIDE TO BE THE HANDS AND FEET OF JESUS IN OUR COMMUNITY!
Our church will once again be having an all-day community missions day on May 1. We have looked at different projects and designed them to follow Covid Guidelines as outlined in the descriptions below. We are also encouraging families to adopt a project and work together as a “family team” as you serve for the day. Please read the details of the projects, prayerfully consider how you can serve, and sign-up to be Salt and Light to those around us!
