You are invited to join us in the Frankford section of Philadelphia this July for our summer outreach. Over the course of three days we’ll help to clean and prep their new church building, pray with their leadership team, canvas the neighborhood to gather info for a church book bag event and invite people to an indoor picnic that Saturday. On Saturday we’ll work the event (welcoming people, doing games and activities with children, food) to free up church members to interact with their neighbors.
* Who: Adults, young adults, and youth (must be accompanied by a parent)
* Additional Info: We’ll be carpooling, going down/coming back each day – not an overnight mission. A $50 donation payable to Grace Community Church is suggested in order to help cover Grace City Church of Frankford’s costs for the outreach.
* Schedule: We’ll plan to meet at the GCC church offices (144 Allentown Rd, Souderton) each morning at 7:45 to carpool together and increase fellowship. We’ll be departing for home from Frankford around 3:30 each day. Depending on traffic, travel time is roughly an hour.* On Thursday (6th) we’ll be doing a variety of things to serve the church, like cleaning or painting or doing any kind of tasks they need. We’ll also be spending time in focused prayer for the ministry of their church and for the outreach on Saturday.
* On Friday (7th) we’ll be canvassing the neighborhood to invite neighbors to the Saturday outreach picnic and to inquire if their school-age children would like to receive a free backpack prior to going back to school (a future church outreach)
* On Saturday (8th) we’ll be staffing the community outreach picnic at the church so that the members of the church can focus on engaging with the people of the community
* Optional 4th Day: Attend the church service at 10:30am – providing (hopefully) a worship team as their church lacks musicians.
