Serve in the Church and in the Community
We give ourselves away in generosity and service.
We are intentional about cultivating this habit because Jesus came “not to be served but to serve” (Matthew 20:28), and he challenged us to do the same: “I have given you an example to follow. Do as I have done to you.” (John 13:15)
Try out one of our opportunities to serve in the church and/or the city based on your skills, passion, and availability, and discover greater purpose and deeper joy.

Serve in Worship
Are you interested in serving communion or have a child interested in being an acolyte? We’re seeking communion servers every Sunday at the weekly 8:30 service and throughout the year for special services. Communion is also served in the contemporary service on the first Sunday of the month. In addition, sign your 6th-12th grade child up to acolyte – not only do they get to be a part of worship, but they also get to play with fire! Contact Lydia Jackson.
