For you were called to be free, brothers; only don’t use this freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but serve one another through love. – Galatians 5:13
We don’t serve to obtain or keep salvation, for salvation cannot possibly by achieved by man’s works. Jesus secured our salvation on the cross. But as believers of God and followers of Christ, we joyfully answer the call to serve God by serving others. We offer opportunities for serving within the church family, within our community, and around the world.
