3rd Saturday of every month 8:30am to 12:30pm. Bring your family and serve at a food bank. Opportunities to fill grocery bags, load cars, organize, and pray with recipients. This project is a blessing for the people we serve, and we are blessed in giving of ourselves. This is a great project for individuals and families alike. Maturity level is more important than age. The food giveaway occurs every third Saturday of the month. This is a good project if you are looking for a place to serve on a more regular basis. We have families that serve every month, once a quarter, and once a year. Come and be the hands and feet of Christ! We are in need of prayer warriors!!
We will be handing out hygiene kits, snack bags, praying for and loving on our friends experiencing homelessness. We will start our serve at 8:30am at Church of the Reconciler (112 14th St N 35203) , walk down under 65 bridge. Then around 10:00 we will head back to the Bham Dream Center on 1st Ave ( 5705 1st Ave N 35212) and continue our serve, loving on our friends in that area until the After Party starts at noon.

Changed Lives Christian Center is a men’s transitional housing community. This is a place where homeless men can get back on their feet, rejoin society, and be empowered to lead productive lives. Our serve project is aimed at building relationships, being the hands and feet of Jesus, hosting a community meal, and making an eternal difference in this community. There will be several projects at the center on SERVE Day with a “block party” atmosphere. You are signing up for the shed building team. We are putting up a 12x16 storage shed for the center.
