CARING FOR YOUR CITY
Living missionally brings transformation through investing time in relationships rather than events, in people rather than projects, and simply engaging our community with the hope of Jesus. Join us in taking transformational power to our community by proclaiming the hope of Jesus through acts of love and compassion.
COMPASSION TEAMS
Compassion teams work with local partners to bring hope, needed resources, and loving support to the vulnerable and marginalized in our community. The teams are designed to connect you with people who share the same passions and opportunities to step into the good works God has prepared for you!

LOCAL ACTS OF LOVE
In partnership with Feeding America, Engedi hosts a monthly food distribution for anyone in our community who needs help overcoming food insecurity. We hope that guests not only have the opportunity to receive food, but also feel cared for and encouraged through relationships with our Engedi Volunteer Team. Gleaners happen on the 4th Wednesday of every month. The event starts at 5 pm at the Holland Campus. Email [email protected] to get involved.

The team hits the streets every other month to connect with and bless individuals throughout the community. The activities vary, but the mission stays the same.

WATCH LOCAL STORIES
Around Engedi, showing up to care for our city is a big deal. Our Local Partners help us engage parts of our city that may be overlooked or vulnerable. By serving with them, we get to share the love of Jesus through relationships and demonstrate that love in tangible ways. It’s our hope that each person who calls Engedi home might consider taking their own next step of compassion.
