Community Outreach
The Christian Action and Community Outreach Ministry promotes an awareness of our need to be a mission-minded church, promotes outreach opportunities, and promotes special offerings.
As Christians we are called to reach out and spread the Good News of the love and salvation found in life in Jesus Christ and to invite any and everyone far from God to God’s Church. One way we spread the Good News is by our actions: giving, serving, advocating and publicly witnessing for reconciliation where there is injustice. Following are several ministries in which members of Park Hill Christian Church reach out and take action to spread the Good News. You can indicate your interest in learning more about any of these ministries by completing the Volunteer Survey and bringing it to the Church Office.
