Serve 731

For the past few years, West Jackson has gathered in April for Serve 731 Day, a day dedicated to serving others around the city of Jackson.

This year, we are shifting our focus from serving on one day to Loving those around us, Serving our community, and Sharing our faith throughout the year.

As we commit to Serve 731, you can sign up for a group project using the link below, or find individual ways to Love, Serve, and Share. Here are some ideas to get you started:

Love

  • Commit to Pray for a specific lost friend(s).
  • Send a note of encouragement.
  • Speak a word of encouragement to a store employee.
  • Ask your waiter/waitress how you can pray for them before your meal.
  • Build relationships with your neighbors.
  • Prayer Walk a street in your neighborhood.

Serve

  • Visit a neighbor who is shut-in.
  • Take a meal to someone.
  • Volunteer with RIFA, the Dream Center, etc. 
  • Sign up to serve in a “new to you” ministry at church.
