Become a Change Maker

serveday shirt.jpg

Our mission/vision is: Love God. Love Others. Serve. You can’t love God or love others without serving them, so there is no such thing as a spectator at Friendship! We refer to those who serve as “Change Makers.” We serve God, serve each other, serve our community, and serve the world through two categories of missional opportunities:

 

Serve Inside

These are opportunities to equip and care for others inside the walls of Friendship. This includes everything it takes to gather hundreds of people in worship every Sunday (kids’ small group leader, music, technical production, and guest services) and running the church office through the week (reception, communications, connection, and compassion).

 

Serve Outside

These Glocal (Global + Local) opportunities equip and care for others outside the walls of Friendship. Local efforts target our own community in Athens and Limestone County, Alabama. Global efforts are spread around the world.
