Serve Day 2026 was a big success as our middle and high school students stepped out of the classroom and into their community to be the hands and feet of Jesus.

Throughout the day, students were dispersed across the community to assist with a variety of practical needs. The focus was on providing manual support and operational help to local organizations and public spaces.

Serve Day is about so much more than just taking a break from the regular academic routine; it is an intentional effort to foster a heart of service. By working alongside one another, Serve Day helps students gain a firsthand perspective on the impact of local outreach and the importance of supporting our neighbors.

We are incredibly proud of the hard work and dedication of our students, and we want to give a special thank you to all the local organizations/partners who welcomed our teams in and allowed us to serve alongside them.

Venues served: Magnus Veterans Foundation, Visiting Angels, Plymouth Covenant Church, Can Do Canines, Maranatha Presbyterian Homes, Staff Residency, 2nd Chance Horse Ranch, Redeemer Covenant Church, Renovation Church, Radisson Road Baptist, Urbana Senior Living, Good in the Hood, Ukrainian Event Center, Family Alternatives Foster Care Agency, and various other areas across the city to help with trash pick up and more.
