AN ACTIVE FATIH
The life of following Jesus is an active life. We’ve been invited to put our faith in action. As a church, we’re always trying to find ways to live this active faith. Here are just a few ways for you to get involved. This is just a starting point!
- Praying for those who are sick and hurting & writing cards to them.
- Become a part of the Ministry of Encouragement.
- Give old eye classes, ink cartridges, greeting cards, “Box Tops & Campbell’s Labels for Education, for various ministries.
- Take food or provide other assistance to the sick and those who are grieving.
- Go out of your way to welcome guests in our worship gatherings.
- Volunteer to teach or assist in our Children’s Ministry. No experience needed, just a willingness to serve!
