On behalf of Saddleback Church I want to thank you in advance for looking into ways you can serve your church family.
Ephesians 2:10 tells us: ”For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”
Pastor Rick teaches that we all are SHAPE'd by God with individual gifts and talents that are to be used to support the Body of Christ. The success of Saddleback
Church is not an accident! Men and women such as yourself have stepped up to be used in unbelievable ways. Pastor Rick does not want you to miss out on this great
opportunity to serve God. One of Saddleback Church’s principles is that every member is a minister, and when you do not play the role that God has designed you to do
for the church, the Body of Christ suffers.
Be a part of an outreach that seeks to minister to the elderly and disabled by offering them time spent in fellowship,
prayer, and worship. Serving times can be scheduled around team availability. Contact Linn at llance@cox.net.
Come, make a difference for our neighbors in need by providing a pancake breakfast with cooking equipment that we provide on
