EXPERIENCE THE JOY OF SERVING

“For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others…” (Matt 20:28 NLT)

As followers of Jesus, we are called to serve God and others and some of the greatest moments of joy come from serving those who are struggling and in need of help. In the weeks leading up to Easter, members of East Heights UMC will have the opportunity to follow the example of Jesus through our “Joy of Serving” initiative. Beginning March 25th through April 6th, all are encouraged to experience the “Joy of Serving” by participating in one of the service projects we have scheduled to support others in our community.

Sign up for one or more projects using the links provided below. You may also sign up on the forms in the Coffee shop or call the church office. Let’s share the love of Jesus in the ICT.
