April 27-28, 2013
THANK YOU to the thousands of people who participated in Compassion Weekend 2013!!!
On Compassion Weekend, there are no regular worship services. Instead, we invite our friends and neighbors to join us for service projects up and down the Peninsula. This annual weekend was born out of a dream to see the church increasingly engaged in acts of service in our own communities, we share the love of Jesus in simple, yet powerful ways...and touch the lives of thousands of people in the process.
For many years now, Compassion Weekend has been a vehicle to mobilize thousands of people to make a difference in the Bay Area. The cumulative impact has been great: Houses built, schools renovated, teachers supported, homeless served, children blessed, ministries launched and encouraged. In addition to the measurable results of the work, Compassion Weekend has opened up new relationships between churches, neighbors, schools, and ministries that we would not have thought possible a few years earlier.
PLEASE JOIN US FOR A CELEBRATION, called on May 18-19 after worship services at our Menlo Park campus! While Compassion Weekend is a time we all serve together, even more important are the ways we are called to bless our neighbors every day. And the organizations we supported through Compassion Weekend continue their work year-round. If you haven't already, we encourage you to find an ongoing opportunity to serve in the community as an expression of your faith. Connect with representatives from MPPC ministries and local mission partner organizations, and find out how you can be involved in ongoing opportunities to serve our Bay Area community.
