Outreach Ministries
Ivanrest offers a variety of opportunities for people to put their faith into action through outreach in both the local community and beyond. On the local level, serving a meal at Degage or helping to cheer up the lives of the the residents at the Weston Apartments are part of our activities which challenge members to be used in service to others. Adults, High School/Middle School youth and children are all encouraged to give back in this way. We are also a part of Family Promise, every twelve weeks we serve as a host congregation to the homeless in the area. Guests stay at Ivanrest for one week and we are able to provide meals for them, participate in their lives and get to assist them in many other ways. This is such a fun time for all the over 60 Ivanrest members who participate during the week long stay. If you have questions or are interested in serving in any of the above areas, these are the people to contact:Degage: Joann Borgerding.Family Promise: Carole PettijohnWeston Apartments: Sherry Van Wyk
We also regularly promote trips under the broad umbrella of Ivanrest Impact Ministries. These trips include year trips to Guatemala, Honduran medical missions and also numerous US disaster relief trips. On these trips we partner with various agencies such as Paradise Bound Ministries and World Renew (formally known as CRWRC) to be the hands and feet of Christ to others. Serving Meals at Degage |
