SERVE 2011 was an amazing success.  Our thanks to all who worked so hard to make it so.  And, thanks to the photographers and videographers from 35 or so churches who worked late on Saturday or Sunday night to send us material for this MissionCast.  We will devote several MissionCasts to sharing the SERVE 2011 story.  This MissionCast has some of the initial photos and video clips and reflections by Bishop Schnase who was serving at Kingdom House, in St. Louis.

On September 10 & 11, which is National Service Weekend, Missouri Conference congregations will be out in their community providing all kinds of service.  Some will be painting a public school classroom, some will be fixing and painting park equipment, some will be cleaning up a section of their town, some will be preparing and serving a meal at their local fire department, some will be visiting members of their community in the nursing home, some will be helping to build a Habitat for Humanity house…the possibilities for community service in the name of Jesus Christ and the United Methodist Church are limitless.  Church members will be inviting members of their community to join in with them when they are looking for service possibilities themselves on this National Service Weekend.  The actual National Day of Service and Remembrance is on Saturday, which is 9/11.

SERVE 2011 is sponsored by the Missouri Conference of the United Methodist Church through your Office of Creative Ministries. 

Register your congregation for service at www.serve2011.org.  There you will find all kinds of information including a list of 60 suggestions for ways to service your community.
