Servolution Week

www.servolution.org 

“…It is a culture. Infusing this culture into a DNA of a church will change the view of the world and the perspective of the needs of those around you. This movement is rumbling throughout the Body of Christ - a revolutionary Army of people ready to take up this mandate. We are actively pursuing the lost, the forgotten, and the poor to show them a God who is passionately in love with them. We stand ready with one heart, saying, “I will serve others and show them the hope they can have in Jesus.”

On Good Friday week, we meet with the locals to serve the children. We wash and clean for them; we feed and clothe them; and play with them. Moreover we teach them about Christ and His love for the Children. Jesus served the world by giving Himself as a living sacrifice, so do we serve by doing good to human kind.

We serve others for several simple reasons:
1) Jesus did. Our goal as Christians is to become more like Christ every day. As we study God's Word, we learn about Jesus and the way He lived. Because Jesus loved people, He served them to show them that love (John 13). Our goal is the same, to serve people so they would also come to know Jesus as their personal Savior. 

2) The church and its purpose is best expressed outside its walls. We can't sit inside and wait for the world to come to us. We've got to get out in our communities and show people that we care and that there's a God who wants to heal them. 

3) It's a tangible expression of the love of God for lost humanity. Words can't always fix our pain. People may know that God loves them, but maybe they haven't ever experienced God's love for them in a practical way. We can be a testimony to others of what God can do in their life! 

MANDELA DAY

Former President of South Africa, Nelson Mandela has been honoured by the inauguration of the official Mandela day, to be held on July 18th, his birthday. The celebration of Mandela’s life and values serves as a global call to action for people to make an imprint’ and help change the world around them for the better by pledging 67 minutes of volunteer work, representing Mandela’s 67 years fighting for humantarian issues.

On this day we meet with the locals to serve the children. We wash and clean for them; we feed and clothe them; and play with them.

 Christmas Day

We meet annually to give to the children who expect no gift at this time of the year due to the conditions they live under. Our Christmas parties are normally towards the end of November every year.

We buy gifts, food and invite every one to join us in celebrating Jesus Christ’s birthday with the Kids. We become One Big Family on this day.
