Outreach is Reaching Out!
There are lots of opportunities to get involved with local outreach through Southland’s Danville Campus. Our Expression #4 says that we will generously extend hope to the poor. We have the chance to give the greatest hope of all—Jesus Christ. We take opportunities to give to the poor by expressing God’s love through outreach. It is so easy to get involved. Just e-mail danvilleoutreach@gmail.com and let me know where you would like to get plugged in.
Here are some of the projects and activities in which you can get involved right away:
- Showers of Flowers- Sunday, June 10. Any Southland member can bring potted flowers to put on porches at Long Run. If you’ve been wanting to get involved with Serve the City, this is a great way to get started!
- Work Day at Harvesting Hope - Sunday, June 23. This is a day we’ll spend renovation an old house!
- Jennie Rogers Elementary Painting Day - Saturday, July 14. The Library at Jennie Rogers needs a facelift so we’re helping to paint.
- Camp Long Run- 10am-Noon, July 23-25. Help us host a Vacation Bible School for our friends at Long Run Apartments.
- School Supplies - Sunday, August 5. We’ll begin collecting school supplies for the 2012-13 Jennie Rogers school year. This is a great way to bless the children and families in a simple way.
