Today is the start of a busy week for our church. We are taking part in a local short-term mission trip in a city near
one of our new campuses. The event is called "Serve West Bountiful." We have over 500 volunteers signed up to work on over 20 homes in that city. This event is becoming a favorite in our church, and for good reason: serving people in Jesus' name and having a lot of fun doing it. Last year we did "Serve Ogden" where we worked on 25 homes in the city of Ogden. It's a lot of work to organize so many people to get so much work done in just a short week, but it's a huge payoff in terms of building bridges in our community and giving just a small glimpse to folks what love with no strings attached really looks like. I'll try to post some updates as the week goes on, but to get an idea of what we'll be doing, you can check out my posts on last year's event
