The annual weekend of service on September 6-7 will include six projects open to everyone, both on and off campus.
September 6 Service Projects | September 7 Service Projects
Off-campus service projects on September 6
Two exciting off-campus opportunities are available on September 6, God’s Work Our Hands Day! Take advantage of this incredible chance to serve others and make a difference! Registration is required to participate in these service projects.
Texas Ramp Project
The Texas Ramp Project builds wheelchair ramps for individuals who cannot leave their homes. The build on September 6 is the perfect opportunity for 6 to 10 first-time volunteers to spend a couple of hours contributing to this noble cause by building a ramp for someone in need.
Those interested in participating in this service project can register by clicking here or in the narthex. For more information about this and other upcoming ramp builds, contact Spike Hubenak at spikehube@sbcglobal.net.
Children’s Bereavement Center
We will support our mission partner, the Children’s Bereavement Center of South Texas at 205 W Olmos Drive, from 9 to 11:00 am on September 6 by cleaning their therapy rooms.
We are looking for 20 to 25 volunteers, and the CBCST will provide all the cleaning materials and a list of tasks for each room. Children aged 6 and above are welcome. There will be an age-appropriate project for younger children who cannot clean.
Those interested in participating in this service project can register by clicking here or in the narthex.
