There’s something powerful that happens when we choose to serve others.

We show up thinking we’re going to give our time, energy, or resources to someone else, and somehow, we’re the ones who leave changed.

Serving reminds us that people matter. It pulls us out of our own routines and into the stories of people who are often overlooked, forgotten, or simply passed by. It gives us the opportunity to be the hands and feet of Jesus in very practical ways.

That’s why Antioch Serve exists. Our volunteer teams are doing meaningful work in our community, but they can’t do it without you.

Maybe you can serve for one evening. Maybe you find a ministry you want to be part of regularly. Maybe you’re ready to take on a larger leadership role. Wherever you are, there’s a place for you.

And I want to encourage you to take your next step. 

Here’s What’s Coming Up: Four Opportunities to Serve

Foster & Adopt Families Parents Night Out
Saturday, September 12 | 4:00 PM

Foster and adoptive families often have limited options for childcare, which means nights out and opportunities to simply rest can be hard to come by. We’re creating a fun-filled night for their kids while giving parents a much-needed evening off. Come play, serve, and love on some pretty incredible kids!

Adults with Special Needs at Hope Night
Friday, September 18 | 5:30 PM

Hope Night is one of those nights you really don’t want to miss! We’ll spend the evening enjoying dinner, games, karaoke, and lots of fun with adults with special needs—while allowing their caregivers to have a night of rest and respite.

Meals for Our Neighbors at Helping Hands
Sunday, September 6 | 3:30 PM

Helping Hands gives us the opportunity to serve meals to our neighbors who are experiencing homelessness or are in need. But it’s about more than handing someone a meal. It’s about knowing names, hearing stories, and seeing people who are often driven by instead of cared for.

Adults with Special Needs at Night to Shine
Friday, February 12

We’re already beginning to plan for Night to Shine 2027! Volunteer registration for the event will open in November, but we’re looking now for people who want to take on a larger leadership role behind the scenes. We’ll need key leaders to help with areas like procurement, fundraising, registration, salon coordination, and more.
