Coming November 24

Give

Athens, I Love You® is a season of generosity that shows the love of God to the people of our city in tangible ways by partnering with nonprofits who are making a difference. Join us as we Give Serve Love!

"Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share."

— 1 Timothy 6:18

Serve

Meeting needs in our city can feel overwhelming and complicated. Athens, I Love You® makes it simple! We’ve coordinated hundreds of service projects to support the meaningful work of our nonprofit partners who are making a difference. We’re asking everyone in our church to serve 1 project from November 10 to December 14.

Love

Meeting a specific need can be the easiest way to show God’s love to others. On November 17 & 24, we will be meeting 2 specific needs through a Warm Clothes Collection in partnership with The Sparrow’s Nest and a Toy Collection in partnership with Divas Who Win Freedom Center. We’re asking everyone in our church to donate 1 item.

Warm Clothes Collection

In partnership with The Sparrow’s Nest, we are collecting warm clothes that will be distributed to individuals in need this winter. Please consider donating new or gently used coats, hoodies, gloves, stocking caps, and blankets. Collection bins will be in the lobby at both Atlanta Highway & Beechwood on November 17 & 24.

Toy Collection

In partnership with Divas Who Win Freedom Center, we are collecting toys for Joyfest 2024 to allow moms surviving human trafficking and addiction to shop for Christmas gifts for their children. Please consider purchasing a toy from the Joyfest 2024 Amazon Wishlist. Collection bins will be in the lobby at both Atlanta Highway & Beechwood on November 17 & 24.
