God has uniquely equipped you to serve his people with your time and talents. Serving with others is a great way to meet people, deepen connections, and find purpose. We have targeted places for you to begin to experience the joy of serving right away: serve our neighbors in Prairie Village or in the greater KC area, help with kids (birth-5th grade) or students (6th-12th grade), serve in the building on Sunday mornings, or help behind the scenes in important ways.
