Ready to swap the pews for the pavement? Service Sabbath is an upcoming day of community engagement where our church family steps outside our walls to be the hands and feet of Jesus.

In partnership with Vision House, we’re heading out to provide much-needed support for families in transitional housing. Whether it’s getting your hands dirty with some yard work, planting new growth, or brightening someone’s day by cleaning windows, this is our chance to live out the teachings of Jesus.

Why Join In?

• Love Our Neighbors: We’re moving our mindset from the "inside-out" to serve the local community directly.

• Revitalize Our Unity: There is no better way to bond as a church family than by serving side-by-side.

• Picnic in the Park: After a morning of hard work, we’ll gather for a joint picnic lunch at a nearby park to celebrate what we’ve accomplished together.

The Details

• When: May 30th, (Sat) 10:00 AM - 12 PM

• Where: 501 Union Ave NE Renton WA 98059

  • Join us afterwards at 1 PM @ Lakemont Community Park for a picnic! 5170 Village Park Dr SE, Bellevue, WA 98006

• Who: Everyone! We are currently coordinating with school and sports calendars to ensure our students and families can all take part

• Task: Mainly weeding and adding bark to their yard

• Things to bring: They will provide us with necessary equipment.  If you have working gloves and your favorite tools for this purpose, please feel free to do so     

Note: There is not a Vision House sign on the building.  It is a set of two-story, cream-colored apartments with two parking lots side by side. You are welcome to park in either of those lots, but parking is limited and a bit tight. You may also park on the street along the sidewalk (be careful, this is a busy street) or across the street (on the side of Chase Bank in the shopping center with Safeway and walk across the street).  

I will be there around 9:30am and if you need assistance for direction or other issues on the day, please feel free to contact me (Kosuke) at 425-736-4964 or call Loren Ryan, operational director at VisionHouse, at 202-222-3920.  Please also remember that we will have our church picnic at Lakemont Community Park (5170 Village Park Dr SE Bellevue 98006) after our service at 12:30.  

We look forward to servicing our community together then!!

Kosuke,

ESDAF Outreach Coordinator

See you out there!
