There is Thanks in Giving!

As we prepare for the upcoming Thanksgiving season, we plan our menus, our travel, our time around the table, and our time with family and friends to partake in food that has been so lovingly prepared.

Our brothers and sisters in the Southeastern part of the United States won't have this opportunity to give thanks. Instead, this kind of Thanksgiving won't be a reality for millions affected by Hurricane Helene and Milton.

We are blessed in many ways.  When we partnered with New Life Covenant Church in Atlanta, we also partnered with Rev. Dr. Catherine Gilliard, who has served as co-pastor of New Life Covenant Church in Atlanta, Georgia. We spent time with her while on our pilgrimage this past summer.

She serves as Superintendent of the Evangelical Covenant Church's Southeast Conference and oversees the areas affected by the hurricanes in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina.

Rev. Dr. Catherine Gilliard is on the ground, leading the effort through our ECC Covenant to relieve the affected areas under her watch. Yes, there is Thanks in Giving.  Those who receive your donations will be thankful.

South Bay Community Church, let's make a difference and directly impact those in need by giving.

You can make contributions through the giving portal (select 'Disaster Relief') or through our traditional offering options.

Spread Holiday Cheer: Volunteer to Cook and Serve at Abode Every Second Saturday!

As we embrace the holiday season, a time of giving and compassion, we invite you to join a special initiative to assist those in need. Be a beacon of hope and change by participating in our monthly event at Abode, held every second Saturday. Let's come together to cook and serve meals this festive season, offering warmth and care to those less fortunate.

In line with current health guidelines, masks are mandatory, and teams will be kept small to ensure everyone's safety.

Support the SBCC Children's Ministry (G.L.O.W.)

While we may have just a few, Jesus loves the little children (ages 3-11) as much as we do, and we want to welcome them with open arms.

Children's church will run on 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Sundays and include music, Biblical stories, and creative activities introducing them to God's love and nurturing their spiritual growth.

If you love the laughter of little ones, then the G.L.O.W. team would love to have you as a volunteer. Options are limitless, ranging from classroom support or assisting with snacks and crafts. If this opportunity tugs at your heartstrings, drop a note to Ashley Watson via the church directory or sign up below on the events page and select your support role.
