ESL Class begins March 20, 6:30 PM
An excellent opportunity for cross-cultural evangelism and ministry is working with internationals who live in our community. Do you know that most internationals who visit America to study are never invited into the home of an American, much less a believer? I have heard stories of some who bring suitcases of gifts from their country of origin, excited to share them with new friends in the U.S., only to discover that no one cares for them after arriving. Crestview has been given a unique opportunity to provide ESL classes for international students studying at UGA Griffin.
If you want to befriend these students, consider serving with our new ESL ministry (English as a Second Language). Classes start on Monday, March 20, from 6:30 PM–8:00 PM and continue each month's 1st and 3rd Monday evenings. ESL class will meet in the fellowship hall. This class aims to teach conversational English and improve speaking proficiency. We can use you if you can speak English and be a Christ-like example.
For more information or to volunteer, contact Tricia Hill at triciadhill@gmail.com.
Foster Care Night, March 24
On Friday, March 24, from 5:30 PM–9:30 PM, we will provide a parent's night out for local foster families. Our church is coming alongside Families for Families, a local foster care ministry lead by Brian and Ivy Scoggin, to serve fostering parents. We will provide child care at the Crestview campus while parents get a much-needed night out.
You must be certified through Crestview's Ministry Safe program to volunteer for this opportunity. If you still need to be certified, you can start the certification process now and be ready to serve by the 24th.
For more information or to volunteer, text Angela Lawrence at 770-307-8027.
Elder Nominees Question & Answers
After gathered worship this Sunday, there will be a question and answer panel with the elder nominees: Rocky Stubbs, Cole Barnes, and Brandon Vaughn. This panel is an excellent opportunity to learn more about elder ministry, our church, and these men.
