COMMUNITY - FAMILY SERVICE EVENTS
Help make a difference in our community by joining or planning a Family Service Event!
​
1. Every month, we offer a different community service opportunity for people of all ages. The Family Service Events focus on practicing a specific character strength such as empathy, compassion, or generosity during our service.
2. Families participate in the community service as a group at a designated location while following COVID-19 guidelines.
3. Families are encouraged to join us for a short reflection time where we can share how we felt after our experience of service, and how we can continue building on our character and serving others.
