Love Your Neighbor

Impact by Serving

"Jesus replied: 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself.'" Matthew 22:37-39 

Love Your Neighbor is just what it sounds like, an initiative focused on impacting the lives of other people with the love of Jesus by serving them.

This fall, there are two opportunities to come together with your campus to love your neighbors by serving them! Check out the opportunities below to get involved and make an impact in your community!

Christmas Store

Be His Hands and Feet This Christmas

One Love Your Neighbor project that ALL of our campuses are coming around this fall is something called “The Christmas Store.” For many families in our area, making sure that their kids have a memorable Christmas can be a burden financially; that’s where the Christmas Store comes into play.

We'll connect with our local schools to learn which families would benefit most from this opportunity and invite them to “shop” for their child at the Christmas Stores on our campuses. We'll talk with these parents, encourage them, and pray for them while their gifts are being wrapped by our teams. Each family leaves with a few Christmas gifts in tow and a few burdens left behind.

In October, we’ll be collecting the items that will stock these Christmas Stores. Each campus has a unique shopping list that you can view below or pick up on your campus to help you shop and pick out supplies for the Christmas Store.

From November 3 to December 1, volunteers will begin signing up to serve at the Christmas Store on December 7. We can’t wait to see how God will use you to be His hands and feet this Christmas.

Christmas Store FAQ:

The Christmas Store allows campuses to work with local schools to connect to families who may struggle financially to give their kids a memorable Christmas. Those parents are invited to "shop" at The Christmas Store for select items for their child from several categories – everything from coats and clothing essentials to toys and books. 

While at the store, campuses will talk with these parents, encourage them, and pray for them while their gifts are being wrapped by our teams! Each family leaves with a few Christmas gifts in tow and a few burdens left behind.

The Christmas Store will be hosted by all five campuses on December 7; times will vary.

The Christmas Store will be hosted at all five campuses.

Campuses will work with local schools to determine which families could benefit most from this opportunity. Those families will receive an invitation from us to “shop” at the Christmas Stores on that campus.

Only the families who have been invited by each campus will be permitted to shop at The Christmas Store. This is to ensure that each family invited has a smooth experience and leaves feeling encouraged and loved.

October 6-27: Each campus will collect items to stock the Christmas Stores in October. View campus-specific shopping lists below with all the information you need to pick out supplies for The Christmas Store.
