Next week is MLK weekend!
We have a team of people here that put together a list of local events, centered around community, serving others, and celebrating.
Pick up a handout in the Gathering Area at church, or find the list of events here!
And, make sure to join us next Sunday for our special MLK service!
When Civil Rights leader John Lewis advocated for a holiday to honor Martin Luther King, Jr., he called for a “national day of service.” He urged for “a day on, not a day off … a day of service to our communities, to our brothers and sisters, and to generations yet unborn so that we all may continue Dr. King’s work of building the beloved community.”
This attitude of service is the same attitude of Jesus who, “did not come to be served but to serve.” So we are taking up this challenge for a “day on” of serving and turning it into a “month on” with a church-wide Serve-a-thon. Our goal is to put in 250 hours of service by the end of February, and hopefully create a pattern of serving that will continue long after!
