Most groups are open to new members throughout the semester. Our Groups Directory can help you find a group that fits your interest, location and time preference. Learn more about Groups at www.cedarcreek.tv/groups

You can also check out the Serve Projects page where you will find a list of Groups that have serve projects with room for others to help. Simply find one you like and contact the leader listed.

Hopefully, you have selected something to do together, but if you are in need of an idea, you can check out our list of ideas for ways to get involved.

Get creative! Assess people and their needs in your neighborhood and around your community. Perhaps there is a widow, single mother, or elderly person that could be assisted by painting their house, cutting grass, or cleaning up the yard. Firefighters, police officers, school resource officers, nursing home residents, assisted living homes, and local business owners are all great people to reach out to and find a way to SERVE! Check out our list of ideas and other options from local service organizations for ways to get involved.

Yes, we definitely would like know about what your group is participating in. You can register your group’s Serve project online.

Each Group is responsible for all of the supplies and costs associated with their serve project. Spend time determining the scope, and plan work based on your group size and commitment level.

Plan on bringing any personal items you may need, like your Serve Day T-shirt, sunscreen, drinking water, tennis shoes, a hat, etc., along with any items pertaining to your serve project such as rakes, gloves, lawnmowers, tarps, work tools, etc. For serve opportunities requiring physical labor, work clothes are a good idea. We recommend not wearing jewelry. Also check with your leader for what you may need.

Groups will be asked to follow current Ohio Department of Health guidelines while completing their project.

Weekly emails will be sent to all Group leaders and co-leaders, and general information will be communicated here on this site. More info may be presented during Sunday services prior to Serve Day.

If you have an outside serve project, make plans to have an inclement weather option in mind. Some suggestions are to visit a nursing home, serve at a local service organization, or clean classrooms at a local school.

Yes, serve opportunities will be available on the Serve Day Project Directory. Guests will be able to search for a serve opportunity that interests them and sign up for it. These opportunities will be completed by the guest on their own or with their family. Each serve opportunity one part of many performing a similar serve. These serves will have a project lead who would then serve as the contact for the project, offer support, care and encouragement to those who sign up and cheer for them when they complete their serve.
