We’ll also have the chance to serve this ministry by helping complete some work projects and clean up at a nearby school campus.

The Details you need to know:

When: Saturday, November 12 10am-7:30pm. Meet at church and we’ll take the vans!

Who: Any Oasis high school students and their friends.

What to bring:

  • a sack lunch to eat on the way
  • a water bottle
  • warm, messy clothes (expect outside painting, and clean up)
  • A change of clothes for afterwards, if desired.

We’ll grab some dinner downtown when we are done (no charge) before we come back to Elmhurst.

Looking forward to a great day of service and ministry!
