Why Serving Matters
As a church, our vision is leading every generation into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ, and serving is one of the primary ways we live that out through the purposes of the church. Scripture reminds us that we are called to serve one another humbly in love (Galatians 5:13), to use the gifts God has given us as faithful stewards of His grace (1 Peter 4:10), and to value others above ourselves (Philippians 2:3–4). When you serve, you grow spiritually, build lasting relationships, experience joy and fulfillment, strengthen the church, make an eternal gospel impact, and set an example for others to follow.
