McKernan young adults body building

Young Adults
BODY BUILDING

"Body" Building: an effort to build up the body of Christ by serving one another. We do this by putting together teams of amazing people to help out members of our church family with various tasks and projects that they may have in the Spring. If you're interested in being involved at all in serving, or if there's a project that you'd like some help with, this is the place to let us know that!  Our desire is that this would become an intergenerational initiative to bridging relationships as part of our formation in Jesus Christ!

There are two different application forms:

  1. Apply if you need a hand with a project
  2. Apply if you'd like to serve others
