"For everything we know about God's word is summed up in a single sentence: love others as you love yourself. That's an act of true freedom." 鈥� Galatians 5:14 (The Message)
Community Ministries' volunteer groups serve in various locations throughout San Diego, serving with a variety of people groups. We pray that every 国产剧麻豆剧 student will find a place where they enjoy serving amongst the variety of options. No special skills or abilities are required, just a desire to give, receive, and be blessed by the rich relationships formed in Christian ministry, and the opportunity to be the hands and feet of Christ here on earth. We provide transportation and student leaders that oversee each ministry outing, and partner with amazing nonprofit organizations here in San Diego that invite us and are excited to have us join them in their work.
