Saturday Serve Day

Picture
Saturday Serve Days are days that Discovery Church mobilizes and goes out into the community to Represent Jesus.  We do this by loving on our neighbors and helping them do simple jobs that they do not have the resources to do themselves.  These are planned for 3 times of year during March, June and September.  The next SERVE day is....

SEPTEMBER 19, 2020
8:30am-12:30pm

We have 9 opportunities at 8 locations to serve in the Catawba Valley area.  We will be serving two individual's homes and three of our Local Ministry Partners.  Or you can do Behind the Scenes work serving our volunteers.  
SERVE days are for the whole family, although we suggest family members be at least 5 years of age.  To work at a SERVE day we need everyone to fill out a Release of Liability.  Those can be filled out at the site.  Participants under 18 will need a Parental/Guardian Permission form.

Please note that some of our Ministry Partners require their own Volunteer Forms.  See more information below for details related to those sites.
Here is a list of the available sites for September 19, 2020.  Please scroll below for more information.  Click Sign-up to commit to a specific site.  For questions, please contact missions@discoverychurchhickory.com.
When coming to the work day, please wear closed-toe shoes and work gloves, if applicable.

THANK YOU FOR SERVING!!  ALL SPACES FULL!!

Behind the Scenes - @ Discovery Church

We want to serve those who are serving!  In order to help those serving at the different sites and to help them have a great day, there are some things that will need to be done behind the scenes. We need food preppers, delivery personnel, picture takers, truck drivers to run items between sites. If you want to help in other ways than on the location sites, please find a way to plug in.


Check out the recap video from our June SERVE Day!

We had the privilege of serving a cancer survivor in Newton, a special needs family in South Newton, and also the Family Guidance Center! See above for more information on the next Serve Day!
