Thank you to all George Fox Undergrads for coming to Serve Day! We had our largest turnout ever and were able to help over 65 sites and about 30 more homes beyond that. Whether or not you felt like the work you did on Serve Day was valuable we believe that there will be fruits from your labor. We are continually hearing stories from sites about how our ministry there affected and helped them. Your presence and good attitude on Serve Day was such a blessing.
We are continually refining Serve Day and want your input to make it better.
