Serving the communities and city where we live is an
important way to express our faith and be the hands and
feet of Jesus. Where are some areas where we can partner
with organizations already doing good work as a
demonstration of the gospel?
Serving is a way to both give back to the church and to
discover real life in the process. Real service is not found
in painful drudgery (i.e. "I serve because I ought to"), but
as a missional opportunity (i.e. " I serve because I want to.")
Real service with Life at First Presbyterian takes place when
a person serves in an area where they are gifted and passionate.
When that happens, not only does the server benefit, but
the whole church benefits as well (Ephesians 4:16). This is
the exciting interplay of dynamic service.
Watch for opportunities to serve our city and the world. We will plan regular times to do so.
