SOS – Summer of Service

900 Acts of Service in 30 Days | As a congregational summer project, we asked members to each perform an act of service (or more) for someone else. The result? At least 1700 acts of service were performed. Members made post card reports and deposited them in a box placed on the altar. As a result of this initiative, some acts continued to benefit the community. The program created a way to help people ease into evangelism.
