Access Point
Flexible serving opportunities and Local Reach groups that help get anyone started in making a difference in their community.
Access Point is your on-ramp to serving—offering flexible opportunities and Local Reach groups that make a difference in our community each week.
Access Point is how our church serves those in need through practical, Christ-centered care. Through Access Point, we pack care bags and support Local Reach Groups as they go out into the community to serve, build relationships, and come alongside individuals and families with compassion and purpose.
FLEXIBLE SERVING OPPORTUNITIES
Serving in Local Reach can happen any day of the week! We have several flexible and family-friendly serving opportunities available, such as packing care bags for members of our community. At different campuses you can also help to stock our Pantry, which serves as the hub to supply practical needs in our community.
These provisions aim to alleviate the immediate burdens and identify opportunities to build trust in the communities that might benefit from other Path Out of Poverty programs.
