11 Days of Service

11 Days of Service
Register for projects here
Christ’s heart is clearly seen when we are reaching beyond ourselves and serving others. It’s why, at Christ Church, one of our core values is to “Live a Life of Servanthood,” so that all might come to know the love of Christ through our love for others. 

During the months of September, October and November, Christ Church will celebrate “11 Days of Service” by inviting Community Groups, families, and individuals to serve by signing up for one of the projects below. 

Alternatively, you may choose to plan a different outreach event on a day that works better for you or your group—perhaps focused on a cause you care deeply about. If you’d like suggestions for local organizations to partner with, feel free to reach out to Whitney Bohn,
