In partnership with churches, associations, your state convention, and SEND Relief, the Serve Tour seeks to inspire you to engage in compassion ministry through participation in ministry projects in Virginia Beach. Our plan is to find ways to meet needs and bless churches, schools, local governments, and compassion ministry non-profits. In addition, we want to strategically help local revitalized churches and bless bi-vocational pastors by providing assistance.
We want to make it easy to bring people together in Jesus’ name to make a difference.
Our goal is for the Serve Tour to become a unifying opportunity for Southern Baptists to demonstrate to a watching city who we are and more importantly, who our Savior is. As believers swarm the city, we will provide pre-trip training guides and a 30-day prayer guide to help you take your next step on missions.
What will you do?
You will begin each day of Serve Tour at the FBC Norfolk hub. The address is 312 Kempsville Rd, Norfolk, VA 23502. Your project leader will give you instructions each morning of the Serve Tour.
Project details:
Volunteers will assist in building a retaining wall, constructing garden boxes that will be planted by the Love757 Food Pantry, and painting rain barrels to collect water. The goal of this native rain garden is to provide fresh produce to the Ocean View food pantry, helping to meet the needs of local families.
Ocean View Christian Academy has begun a meaningful project by creating a rainwater mitigation native planting through a rainwater retention grant. This initiative is not only a step toward environmental sustainability, but it also serves a bigger mission: to support their school family, church family, and the surrounding community through their community gardens.
