More than 70 people were at Fullerton Calvary’s serve day last Saturday. Mark, one of the volunteers in charge of the project summed up the experience by saying, “It was quite an amazing day to see the spirit of serving by so many individuals and glorifying God…”

The group of volunteers tackled the whole campus of Fullerton Calvary, trimming trees, cleaning and painting the worship hall, restocking shelves in the storage room, cleaning and waxing the floor of the worship hall, and much  more. Mark reported later that about 18 windows were replaced, 5 doors were painted and replaced, an entire kitchen sink was replaced with a huge restaurant-style sink, and two new fans were installed in the bathrooms.

In a follow-up e-mail, one of the staff members had this to say:

Many thanks to Saddleback Church for the wonderful blessings of assistance for our work day this past Saturday. On behalf of Calvary Community Church’s Trustee Board, we wish to send an e-mailed hug and heartfelt thanks to all who participated! Wow! We were so blessed to have our campus full of workers. Please pass on our sincerest appreciation to all who joined in!

The group of PCH volunteers who gave of their time, skill and energy, had a lasting impact on the staff and members of Fullerton Calvary Church. People were significantly blessed from both sides that day.

Serve Where You Live!

Project City Hope is a collaborative community service initiative of Saddleback Church, targeted at showing and sharing God’s love in cities across Southern California through a variety of volunteer-championed programs focused on: promoting reconciliation, equipping servant leaders, assisting the poor, caring for the sick, and educating the next generation.

Our goal is to see everyone serving within their own community through Project City Hope so that by the end of our Decade of Destiny, lives are changed by God’s love, grace and hope across southern California.

Today,Project City Hope volunteer teams are helping children, teenagers, single parents, widows, orphans, families, and the elderly through short-term and ongoing church-based projects in sections of Southern California. Project City Hope also offers starter kits for families, small groups, and teams of people to express God’s love in their community in practical ways. All you need to do is add love and serve.

Project City Hope needs everyone serving together. If you are a part of the Saddleback Church family or are a friend of ours, will you prayerfully consider giving two hours a month, serving within 20 minutes of your home? Will your small group serve twice a year through Project City Hope? If everyone plays their part we will see communities restored and lives transformed. Sign-up by filling out the form above.
