IN THE COMMUNITY
If we believe the Bible is true and we take the commandment to love our neighbor literally … How can we love our neighbor if we don’t know them? And that is why we strive to serve our neighbors in various ways. From nursing homes, to trash pick up, service projects, and events in Mason Mill Park, we want to get out and interact with the people that live in the shadow of our steeple. Want to join us? Email Darren Hughes, our missional outreach pastor.
