Big Serve Week!

We are excited about the many incredible service opportunities available this week through Elevation Outreach and our amazing strategic outreach partners.

Did you know it’s Police Week? You can join us in honoring the men and women who serve wherever you live.  Ideas to honor our heroes in Charlotte, Rock Hill, Gaston, and Matthews on our EVENTS page.

You can BE a hero for our friends at Pregnancy Resource Center on Wednesday.  We are looking for just a few strong folks to help move generously donated office furniture from South Charlotte to PRC’s Midtown offices.

You bring the muscle, we’ll bring the box truck… and lunch.

Pretty neat, right?

SIGN UP HERE.

Then on Friday, join us as we support our friends at Right Moves for Youth.

It’s the Twilight 5k Race.

Saturday, two great opportunities to get out and enjoy the weather and fight life-shortening diseases. Volunteer for the Free to Breathe Lung Cancer race or the Great Strides walk for Cystic Fibrosis.

What a great week! Thanks for your interest in serving with Elevation Outreach!

GREAT Mother’s Day!

LOVE Week and CFF: Great Strides

Thank you for your interest in serving with Elevation Outreach. We are excited about LOVE Week 2013 as we will serve every day for nine days with 600 events across the Charlotte region.

MARK your calendars for July 13-21 and take your summer break with us. Other cities are joining in as well and here is how you can help:

PRAY: It takes four months to prepare for this event which is our city’s largest outpouring of service and generosity.  Please pray for our volunteers as they continue to work their regular jobs and invest in what God’s going to do through Elevation in July. Pray for our outreach staff as we work overtime to make this event bigger and better than ever. Pray for the organizations we’ll be serving with that they will be blessed and that lives will be changed by the love of Jesus in us.

PLAN: Take a look at our list of outreach partners, and our newest partners to see some of the non-profits we’ll be serving with. If you’ve been waiting to serve in outreach, but didn’t know how to start, LOVE Week is the perfect time to jump in. We’ll serve with other great non-profits as well.

ENGAGE in conversations with you eGroup and eTeam about what day/days you might be able to serve together and mark those in your calendars now. Get excited about what God will do through us in our city.

SHARE your favorite LOVE Week moments with your co-workers, friends, and neighbors. Invite others to get involved. This is a great way to invite folks to church because we’ll have outreach events at every Elevation location that you can engage in together.

We are excited to have Cystic Fibrosis Foundation as one of our newest outreach partners. This organization is the leader in raising funds for research to cure this life-shortening disease.

This May 18, Elevation volunteers will have an opportunity to support one of the non-profits biggest events, the Great Strides walk in Freedom Park. Meet and support families like Rebecca and DJ Fish who have two kids with CF. She’s a great Elevation volunteer who is fighting for a cure for Colin and Katelyn, and we are grateful for the opportunity to join them.

Stay tuned to the Elevation Outreach events page to sign up and serve with us this May 18, or sign up to start a team on the Great Strides site.
