ServeRDU: Serving Our Community as a Sign of the Gospel

We’ve had an extraordinary past few days, as just under 3,000 Summit volunteers served in 47 different projects around our 8 campuses in Raleigh-Durham.

We catered appreciation lunches for foster care workers, public school teachers, and police officers. We threw baby showers for single moms and up-fitted pregnancy resource centers. Small groups remodeled and landscaped schools and homeless shelters. Summit volunteers were out in the rain, were in our local schools, were visiting prisons. The women’s prison inmates actually gave our volunteer team a standing ovation. One of the prison workers commented, “In all my years of prison work, I have never seen that.”

Summit, thank you. You were all over the community this week! What an incredible sign to our city of God’s great grace to us!
