Join "Serve Together Sunday"
A Service Project on Sunday September 26th
As the grand finale of Love Agent Week we are partnering with:
-
The YMCA: to serve their youth services branch by washing their bus, cleaning up, and weeding their garden
-
Foster Care Pantry: organizing clothes in their inventory so they can better serve families in foster care.
-
Nourish NC: Organizing an area of their warehouse.
Instead of our normal worship service at the YMCA we invite everyone to join in on a service project opportunity by showing up ready to serve!
