“Individual commitment to a group effort—that is what makes... a civilization work.” — Vince Lombardi

Let’s serve our neighbors, together! We will first, gather after church for a quick lunch (provided at no charge) at 11:30 am. We will then break out into teams and tackle several community service projects that will make a huge impact on the needs of our community and neighbors.

PROJECT LIST:

GEORGETOWN SCHOOL LANDSCAPING PROJECT- To show appreciation to our local schools for how hard they work serving our kids, we will be helping with cleaning out a special decorative garden at Georgetown School. This project will include pulling weeds and laying fresh mulch. Please dress appropriately and bring gardening gloves (if preferred).

POLE GREEN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL - At Pole Green Elementary, we will be helping with cleaning up the sign in front of the school; clearing foliage from the sign and cleaning mildew off the sign as well as planting some flowers around the sign.

RURAL POINT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL - Rural Point has an incredible gardening program for their students. We will be helping to clean out and maintain some raised beds to help beautify this gardening program.

MECHANICSVILLE HIGH SCHOOL - We will be staining and maintaining the benches and picnic tables that the students use in their outdoor commons area as well as some general cleanup where needed.

TRAIL TEAM - We are continuing to improve our nature trail behind the church! This team will help clear the trail. We are excited to open up this trail to the public and to share our property with our neighbors who are looking for a peaceful wooded trail to walk. The trail is 0.56 miles long from beginning to end. You may want to wear long pants, bug spray and/or gloves.

LIFE4REAL CLOTHES SORTING - We will sort and distribute locally donated clothing to shelters and those in urgent need throughout our region. These clothes are provided to those being rescued out of human trafficking, domestic violence, homelessness and addiction.

ROAD CLEANUP - We will be removing trash from local roads. This team will be recycling what can be recycled and disposing of the rest. Safety equipment will be provided to you.
