At least three times a year, our church stops what it normally does on a Sunday morning to go out and serve. We intentionally serve our surrounding community. It's a great way to build community with those inside and outside of the church. 
​SERVE Sundays are an important part of what we believe it means to live out Life in God, Life with Others and Life for Others.

 Current Service Opportunities
 
The Rotating Safe Car Park program needs volunteers. This is a program operated by various churches in Saratoga on a rotating basis. Each night a church hosts up to 15 cars, providing a safe place for the owners to park and sleep in their cars for the night. Volunteers are needed each evening for about 45 minutes during check-in and for about an hour each morning for check out. To volunteer for a night or a morning, see below. To watch a 30 minute video providing tips on interacting with homeless persons, click here.
To get involved as a volunteer, send an email to rscp@propeace.org.
Location: May 2021 at Westhope Church, Saratoga.
