King's Builders Team
This group of adults travels to sites in the United States to assist in the building of facilities to be used in the worship and praise of God. This year we are looking forward to a project in Ohio, July 20-26, 2008.
Judeo Christian Outreach Center
Adults as well as youth help to provide and serve food for those in need at the Judeo Christian Outreach Center in Virginia Beach. The next opportunity is Tuesday May 20, at 5:00 pm.
Classes involved in preparing the meal for May are: Spiritual Journey, Koinonia, Mary & Martha, Agape, Youth and Preschool Workers. Talk to Linda Dodson or Judy Glass if you have questions or want to volunteer.
The classes for October 28 are: Bible Study Fellowship, Fresh Start, Voyagers, Next Step and New Life.
Operation Inasmuch
Each October we help to share the love of Jesus through hands-on ministry and community impact mission projects. Dozens of projects were accomplished in October 2007. [ Watch the Video ]
The next Operation Inasmuch is scheduled for October 25, 2008. Mark your calendar and join us that Saturday!
Operation Christmas Child
Each year we help to share the joy of Christmas and the joy of Christ to needy children throughout the world, who otherwise would not experience the giving spirit of Christmas. In 2007, the church members provided 86 shoe boxes!
Meals on Wheels
Several of our members deliver meals to individuals or families who are unable to provide a nourishing meal on their own. |
Red Cross Blood Drive
Little Neck community churches help the Red Cross facilitate a blood
drive in our community. To alleviate waiting in line you are able to schedule
an appointment by signing up at the welcome center table or by calling
the church office. Signups begin about two weeks prior to the event. The
location moves every two months through the six Little Neck area churches.
The next drive will be mid-May (1:00 - 7:00 pm) the date TBA.
Winter Shelter at King's Grant
The membership here at King's Grant Baptist Church plan and execute a shelter one week each year for those who do not have a home. This effort is coordinated through the Volunteers of American Organization. The dates for 2008 were January 30 - February 6. [ Read a Report ]
Disaster Relief
We serve God through assisting to serve others after a natural or national
disaster. If you would like to contribute to a disaster relief project,
you can make your check payable to King's Grant Baptist Church and designate
"Hurricane Relief " in the bottom left corner. The church has
aided others all across the country, including those affected by hurricane
Katrina.
World Changers
We support the effort of volunteers who come to the Tidewater Area to
assist in several projects during the summer. These building projects
are vital to urban renewal in our area, and to personal renewal through
Christian volunteers who serve here during these weeks. This is hands-on
ministry that manifests itself in sharing the love of Christ in these
communities.
We are participating in the Norfolk Area project the week of June 15-21, 2008, and expect to provide lunches and encouragement to this year's participants.
Eastern Shore Mission Trip
We spent the day with our friends on the Eastern Shore on Sunday April 27, 2008. We conducted a wonderful outreach event to help an Hispanic congregation, Mision Bautista de Cape Charles and pastor Saul Hermandez. There were 57 volunteers from King's Grant!
