Area Churches Joining Together and Serving the City as One!
April 19th, 2008
For more information on the incredible opportunity or upcoming interest and training meetings that will be occurring, you may contact Mike Pearce (Serving the City Coordinator) at (256) 655-3423 or mike@fbchsv.org.
Excerpt from Serving the City as ONE brochure:
"Serving the City is a one day, multi-church, area-wide effort to serve our community this spring. The impact made on our community for Christ will be wide spread and will touch people at every level.
There will be multiple projects designed so that every person will find something they will enjoy doing. Volunteers work inside around tables; others can repair roofs and houses; others can enjoy face-to-face projects. No matter the skill level, you and your church will find the servant projects just right for you.
Churches will be able to involve everyone in this one day effort. You may choose a project that involves only your members, or choose to work along side other Christian brothers and sisters, hand in hand." |
