Serving

Ways to volunteer

On Mission in Our Community

At St. Paul’s, we believe that our faith extends beyond the walls of our church. We encourage our worshipers to volunteer and serve in the wider community, using their gifts and talents to make a meaningful impact in the lives of others.

 

By reaching out and offering our time to those in need, we embody the teachings of Christ and strengthen our commitment to love and service. Whether it’s supporting local charities, participating in outreach programs, or assisting our neighbors, there are countless opportunities to get involved and share God’s love in practical, transformative ways. Join us as we take our faith into action and bring hope to the world around us.

 

For questions on how you can help, please contact our Acts 1:8 Committee via email at:  ACTS18@stpaulssummerville.org.
