 A Great Day of Service 2008 - "More Than A Day"
 

Our 6th annual Great Day of Service on March 29, 2008 was the best yet!  With over 650 people serving 37 agencies ... we truly impacted our community by being the hands and feet of Christ.  And yet, it was only a day. As we grow spiritually and mature in our faith we should act on Jesus’ command to GO … make disciples of all nations.  We should feel compelled to make giving and serving a part of our daily lives.

Following are many of the agencies that we served during our Great Day of Service. These agencies have ongoing opportunities for serving.  Explore the needs, find your passion, answer Jesus’ call to GO and make
A Great Day of Service more than a day!
