First Love

We set aside a day each Fall for our entire church to come together and serve the community of Tallahassee. There is a place for you to use your gifts to serve others - by encouraging, building, sewing, praying, and more!

Last year we had over 450 participants and completed over 45 projects. To God be the glory! Mark your calendars for the 2011 First Love: October 15. Register now! Forms are available in the College Avenue foyer, in the Connect Center (next to the front desk), or you may use the online form below (ONLY ONE FORM IS NEEDED FOR REGISTRATION). Be sure to note that we will meet in the Sanctuary at 8:30AM on the 15th - all participants will receive a free brown-bag lunch.

"And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased." Hebrews 13:16
