Love Shelbyville Day, is a day we “go outside” the walls of our church and serve our community. We typically break into 10-15 groups. We do everything from paint to clean to build things to landscaping; pick up trash, farm chores, etc...whatever the need is. Please feel free to invite your friends, family, community group members and plan on joining us this Sunday!
We meet at Governor’s Square (198 Frankfort Road) at 10 AM and GO from there. We usually finish serving around noon.
Childcare will be provided for children ages birth-5 years-old. We encourage school age children to serve with their parents.
Check out the group descriptions below. Click on the name of each place we are serving to get more information about what their ministry does day-to-day. Use the link at the bottom of this post to sign up for a group. Pre signing up for groups really helps us be able to serve our partners effectively and get an idea of where we may need more help!
