Steps to a Great Serve Mt. Juliet for your Group

Pray

Ask God to lead you as you design your project. How might He use
your group to share Jesus with our city?

Imagine

Envision what it might look like for you and your group to serve the city of Mt. Juliet and/or our neighboring communities?

Ask Questions

Think through questions like:

  • How is our group uniquely gifted and connected to serve our city?
  • Who do we know (business, non-profit organization, family, etc.) that we can bless?
  • Who in our community has a need we can help meet?

Choose

Decide how your group will serve and register your project here.

Project Ideas and Focus

Projects are designed to serve individuals, families, schools, and local organizations throughout our neighborhoods and communities. Our Serve Mt. Juliet focus will be on reaching out to and serving our city and neighboring communities. We are asking that you serve the outside community on this day. Please schedule projects focused on church members on another day.

Project ideas include the following:

  • Clean up a widow’s or mother’s yard.
  • Deliver snacks, baked goods or lunch to a fire station or police station.
  • Offer free car washes.
  • Serve your neighborhood school.
  • Deliver fresh flowers or snacks to assisted living home residents.
  • Perform landscaping services like grass-cutting and shrub-trimming.
  • Serve a family with a member with special needs.
  • Community trash pick-up.
  • Spread pine straw or mulch at a local park.
  • Wash windows for local businesses using professional window washing supplies
  • available at local building supply stores.
  • Put together dinner kits for families in need.
  • Corral shopping carts at a local supermarket or shopping center.
  • Spread pine straw or mulch at a local park.
  • Pick up trash in parking lots at a local supermarket or shopping center.
  • Laundromat Assistance: take rolls of quarters, coffee, juice, and donuts and have fun
  • serving customers.
  • Toilet and bathroom cleaning at local businesses.

There are so many ideas for serving! Get creative and remember to love on people as you
meet needs, have lots of fun, and celebrate what God does!
