Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.
Blessed are you who are hungry now, for you will be filled.
Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh. —Luke 6:20-21
As followers of Jesus, we know the joy of giving ourselves away. Serving connects our faith to community and brings us into God’s transforming work. Plymouth has many chances to serve in our broader community and in our own church. Take a look through these opportunities and find a time to give yourself in love.
Mission Offering for Mexico
Twenty Plymouth members are making pilgrimage to San Miguel de Allende in September. They are going to bear witness and lend a hand to God's redeeming work in our world. They will visit and serve food at a migrant shelter, learn about water justice, participate in a reforestation project, and build a house. With Casita Linda, they will raise the walls of a house for a family in need.
Casita Linda's path to homeownership involves an investment in the whole community, including therapy-based life skills classes and sweat equity. The cost to build the home is $23,000.The Plymouth mission fund is giving $20,000. As a team, we are raising the remaining $3,000 for the house and another $10,000 to offset the cost of the trip for the team. Will you give to help meet the $13,000 goal?
Mission Offering Goal: $13,000
