Serve

Service is an Expression of the Outward Journey

While our inward journeys of faith help us to discover who we are as children of God, our OUTWARD journeys help us to discover what God has asked us to do in the world. When we share of our time and gifts, we participate with God in creating a better, more loving reality for God’s children. In the process, we also are changed.
