Events in 2010
For a look at events coming up in the year ahead, please go to 2010 Local Mission & Global Trip Dates.
Six Stones Local Service Opportunity | March 12-13
During Spring Break, the City of Euless is partnering with Six Stones to renovate homes in Euless. If you participated in Aiding Spaces 5 years ago at 121, this is what you can expect at the Euless Revitalization Blitz. If you haven’t heard of Aiding Spaces, then think 'home remodeling' and you have the right idea. This service project brings city leaders and the church together for the same purpose of serving. It is a great opportunity for you or your LifeGroup to serve with new people and be the light of Christ to others. To get involved, go to http://www.6stones.org/ or email Scott Sheppard at info@6stones.org.
