SERVE
Serve With Our Mission Partners
Do Justice: Day of Service with Project Peace (March 11, 9 am–12 pm, Locations vary) We are excited to host the “Do Justice” (Micah 6:8) Day of Service. Our community will go to schools and mission partner organizations where we will support work in education, homelessness, youth development, and more. Bring your friends, family, or community group to be part of a small amount of time that will have a big impact.
