MAN UP

Man Up is an extension of Engaged. These are men who are willing to "man up" when the need arises throughout the year to serve our community. Projects may involve yard work, disaster relief, helping families in need, etc.

​SECOND SATURDAY (MOBILE FOOD PANTRY)

We have partnered with Golden Harvest Food Bank to provide food to those in need in Columbia County on a monthly basis. Golden Harvest drops off food items and we step in to distribute that food as we open up our campus to be a distribution center, as well as providing delivery of food boxes to people lacking transportation. This gives us an opportunity to serve our community through distributing food, building relationships, and ultimately sharing Christ's love with others. Food distribution happens on the second Saturday of every month from 9:00-10:30am.

​CLOTHES PICK UP - KID TO KID AND UPTOWN CHEAPSKATE

We pick up clothes every other Thursday / Friday between 2pm-5pm and drop off at our storage unit.  Clothes are used for our Clothing Closet at the Evans campus and at our Sherwood Care Center.

Annual Projects

OPERATION BACKPACK

Each year as the summer comes to an end, we make sure local students have what they need to start the school year off right by providing basic school supplies to those in need. We are adding new components to this program each year as we seek to extend our reach and bless area teachers, as well as children in schools that we have partnered with overseas.

ANGEL TREE

Every year around Christmas, we have the opportunity to brighten the holiday season for families who may need a little more help. Through Angel Tree, we are able to bless neighbors, families, and friends with Christmas gifts. We throw a big party where we distribute the gifts to the families we serve as we celebrate Christmas together. 

ENGAGED

Each year we, as a church, go out and serve our local community for a day. Our teams serve all over the CSRA, performing various acts of service such as repairing homes, baking cookies for local law enforcement, mowing grass, and giving free popsicles away at the park. This is our opportunity to actively go into the world and become engaged in our community so Jesus' name can be made famous. ​​
