Servant Ministries
Servanthood Sunday 2009 Slideshow
Each year on the last Sunday of February, Cross of Life holds its annual Servanthood Sunday work day. We meet at church for a sending service, travel out to our partners throughout the community, then gather again at church for fellowship and a meal.
If you click on the link below, you can view our Flickr slideshow and see SOME of our busy workers who volunteered their time on Servanthood Sunday 2009.

Servant Ministries at Cross of Life
What is Servant Ministry?
-
It is the care and advocacy for the weak, the hated, the
poor and the forgotten.
- It is the ministry of reconciliation that Christ entrusted
to us.
Servant ministry begins within
the conscience of a congregation.....causing it to be a safe and forgiving
place for all who seek refuge inside its walls. The ministry then moves beyond the walls to a neighborhood,
community and world in need of healing.
More than any committee, this one must be in the business of turning believers into
disciples.
Who are our current Servant Partners?

changing, simply because raising up member gifts and connecting meaningfully with the needs and gifts of our partners elsewhere is a constantly evolving process.
