Objective:  To love God is to love others. To serve God is to serve others. Our Serve Projects provide members and friends the opportunity to practice the One Another Principle as we volunteer in the local Powder Springs community and Metro Atlanta area. (Scripture reference, see John 15:17)

 Overview: Members are encouraged to serve with family, friends, Connect Groups, and their Dream Teams during the month of July. There are three ways to get connected to community:
1) Serve with LUC staff on Serve Day
2) Register to serve with one of Linked UP’s partnering agencies
3) Submit your own serve project for approval
The list of partner agencies and their available serve projects are listed below.

PLEASE NOTE: Serve Month t-shirts will be available and distributed to those volunteering during Serve Month, who have NOT previously received a shirt.

Additional Serve Opportunities

Additional serve opportunities are available with our community partners outside of Serve Day. To serve with a local community partner, you MUST REGISTER directly with the organization via the designated sign-up link or process listed below.
