Summer Serve Project 2010
Compassionate Heart Ministry was "birthed" from a community service project involving young adults with disabilities. During this week-long project, the participants work, live, and serve side-by-side with their peers and a personally assigned mentor. Activities include:
Every evening, all partcipants join together for meals, fun and an energetic worship service. The Serve projects gives those with disabilities a retreat from their everyday lives and an experience marked with challenge, growth, support and compassion where needed.
