HomeAbout UsCalendarSermon PodcastsMinistriesMissions (one:eight)Missional ExpressionsGive Online

Over the past few years, we have adopted some local schools. There's no agenda other than serving the teachers, faculty, administration and children in the school. Below, you will see listed the schools that we currently serve. Our desire is to increase as God leads. Check below for ways you can serve personally in these schools.

There are always needs at all schools. Needs vary depending on the school. We serve at the discretion of the principals. Are you or your small group serving? Maybe your small group would like to go spruce up an area of the school property? Perhaps you would like to be a volunteer with the PFA or a classroom "parent?" Remember, the key is to serve. This is not a program. This is relational. The opportunities truly are endless. Just make sure you check with Kaytee Jimenez, our Missional Expressions Coordinator before beginning.
