If you would like to take advantage of this new system, please stop by the sound booth.

Service Opportunities

Student Ministry Snacks Needed!


We love offering snacks at our weekly Wednesday night program, Rush Hour, that meets from 7:00 - 8:45 p.m. Our Jr. High and High School students enjoy

a time of games, worship, and teaching with our Student Ministries staff.


Would you consider helping us provide snacks for our students?

(for Wednesdays and/or Sunday mornings, for 20-25 people)


What snacks can I drop off?: Student favorites include individually wrapped chips, crackers, cookies, and fruit snacks! It's extra helpful if they are individually wrapped bags, which keeps the unused snacks fresh, so we can use them anytime! If you'd like to bake something homemade, just give us a heads up so we know when it's coming!


When can I drop off?: You can drop them off anytime during the week.


Where do I drop off?: You can drop off at the front desk of the office.


Please email Jonathan (jbalentine@sangabrielcommunity.org) for more info. Thanks!

Please be praying for our church family, Vivana Delgado and Emily Peterson, who are on short-term mission trips this summer.

 

Viviana is leading a group of students from Cal Baptist University on an international service project with Jungle Aviation and Relay Services (JAARS) in Southeast Asia. The students are pursuing careers in aviation related fields and are experiencing the vital role that aviation serves in missions in hard-to-reach areas. The team left on May 4 and is scheduled to return on May 24.

 

Emily will be going with a group of fellow students from Cal State Long Beach who are involved in Navigators. The team will be serving in a Muslim-majority culture in Southeast Asia, building relationships for evangelism and serving in a VBS-styled program with the on-going ministry there. The team will be leaving on June 15 and returning July 13.
