We need your help. We have an immediate need for 40 people with a heart for service. This could be your calling. Serving others is a key part of following Jesus. When we serve, we are able to influence others. If you would like to grow in your relationship with Jesus, one way you can do that is through service. Asbury has many opportunities to get started and you can serve as little as two Sundays a month.
AsburyKids Kindergarten -5th Grade Volunteers at 11 am - Training is provided, and many will attest that it is the volunteers who get so much more out of the experience. Serve with our grade-schoolers by playing with them, assisting with a lesson and craft, and getting to know them by leading a small group time.
To learn more about serving opportunities, stop by the Guest Services Desk anytime on Sundays, or visit asburytulsa.org/serve2
