Serve Weekend 2023

July 29 and 30 is Serve Weekend, and you can sign up today for a project!

We would love to connect you with a project to serve our city and meet some needs in our church together.

Families with little kids, we invite you to come to the GVL Block Party on July 30 from 5-7 PM at the Kroc Center with your kids so you can meet other families from Greenville that day as families in need get school supplies. Let’s not just help families in need; let’s hang out and encourage them.

Here are our projects for the weekend…

Saturday, July 29th

The Way Outreach Center Deep Clean Project // 9-12

Team Lead: Mike Kuckel

We will do a deep clean of the center that serves our neighborhood homeless population each day of the week to meet needs during the day. Carpet cleaning, window and bathroom scrub, chair cleaning, sorting needed areas.

GCC Kids New Preschool Room Addition // 9-12 at GCC

Team Lead: Emma Hartzog

We need to add space for our growing p[preschool area, but we have some sorting, cleaning, and painting that need to happen to open the room. We need a team to help prep this new area for the preschool team. We will need several folks with trucks to take stuff to donate!

We need two teams to help us greet people in parking lots, help monitor the event, help welcome people onto the Kroc Field and give directions. We will have two teams so that one can handle the setup, and one wrapping up event.
