Serving in the Community

 

At Ignite Church, we care about our community! Since the first days of Ignite, we have served our neighbors by serving as a church through Faith In Action Sunday -- where we go out in teams to support families and organizations in our region. We have provided free oil changes for single moms, care packages for homeless people, a Spa Day for women who have suffered abuse, and home "makeovers." We have sent teams to replace roofs, paint houses, clear yards, and build ramps. Through these and other service opportunities, we have partnered with Pathway Ministries, The Children's Home, The Center for Prevention of Abuse, Southside Mission, The Dream Center, and others. At Ignite, we don't want to be people who just "go" to church; we want to BE the Church!

 

Once a year, we turn our entire church into The Christmas Shop, where families experiencing financial need can come and shop for gifts for their children.  It is an enormous, churchwide undertaking complete with new toys, books, items of need, a wrapping station, and a children's Christmas party. 

 

In addition to our churchwide Faith in Action Sunday and our Annual Christmas Shop, we also do service projects throughout the year in smaller groups and serve individuals in need. It is a privilege to be part of bringing the hope and light of Jesus to our city.

 

If you have a heart to serve the people of our community, we want to connect with you!
