CCC Serving Spree: Doing It for Jesus

‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

From Matthew 25

Jesus takes our acts of justice and mercy personally.

When our love for Jesus motivates us to serve the less fortunate, He rejoices.  Sacrificial service enables us to be Christ incarnate to those in need.

I want Him to rejoice. What can I do?

Here are some suggestions for community groups, families or individuals to consider, as Christ Community Chapel’s Serving Spree gets into full swing:
