What is serve the city?
Serve the City is a movement focused on following Jesus on mission and in ministry by showing kindness and love in practical ways! We will be joining with existing partners and local organizations to offer our support and care. During this event we will be working on various projects to mobilize volunteers in our six communities in North Georgia and the Tennessee Valley to share and show the love of Christ!
Who are our partners?
Through H.O.P.E. and our work in the community, we've built relationships with local organizations doing great things across North Georgia and the Tennessee Valley. Take a look at some of the partners we get to stand alongside as we serve!
