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 Columbia. 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 Spring Valley Baptist Church hub. The address is 91 Polo Road, Columbia, SC, 29223. Your project leader will give you instructions each morning of the Serve Tour.
Project details:
More than 20 years ago, Young Life responded to God’s call to step into the lives of teenage mothers with the hope of Jesus, and the YoungLives ministry was born. Since its beginning, YoungLives has remained committed to its mission: reaching teen moms by entering their world, demonstrating the unconditional love of Christ, and walking alongside them as they grow into the women and mothers God created them to be. Through consistent mentorship and Young Life’s proven relational ministry model, teen moms are supported in making positive choices, setting meaningful goals, and building a future rooted in faith.
Currently, YoungLives is serving approximately 27 teen moms and has reached between 60 to 70 young women over the course of the year. A constant and practical need for these mothers is diapers and wipes. Volunteers will serve these young moms by creating care packages with diapers and wipes.
