To serve others through gifts of baking/meal prep
OVERVIEW:
This group exists to serve the internationals in and throughout our church and community.

This is usually on an as needed basis as opportunities present themselves.
HOME PROJECTS
To be the hands and feet in the church and community as physical needs arise in homes.
OVERVIEW:
Volunteers on this team are handy in home project skills and will be notified if someone within the church needs assistance. They will also be informed as these types of serve opportunities arise within the community.
HOST HOMES
Host Homes serve as the “home away from home” by providing a space for college community groups to meet.
OVERVIEW:
Being a member of this team means hosting a college community group in your home at least once a month. You may also provide a meal for the group when hosting.
COMMUNITY GROUP FACILITATOR
Facilitate conversations to help others live the life Jesus died and rose for them to live. Create a safe place, encourage authenticity, celebrate breakthroughs, and lead the way!
OVERVIEW:
Community is at the center of who we are as a church. Facilitators get the incredible opportunity to weekly facilitate a group of people within their same life stage. Community groups are driven by relationships and life-stage, and are focused on weekly ACC teaching. Every group meets in a home.
INTERNATIONALS

FOSTER CARE/ADOPTION
To serve families who have fostered or adopted, allowing them to step into their calling.
OVERVIEW:
If you have a heart for either foster/adoption care, either wanting to foster/adopt or simply serve families who have/want to foster/adopt, our Alongside ministry has many opportunities that pop up. In serving families within the church, other churches, and the community, we want to be the church in serving these families and children.
NOTES AND LETTERS
To serve and bless others by written encouragement or prayer.
OVERVIEW:
Volunteers reach out via the craft of a handwritten note of thanksgiving and encouragement to individuals and many groups in the Auburn-Opelika area. A heart of love for Jesus, love for others, and a joy of writing is necessary to be effective in this group.
