Missions . . . that is exactly what this church is. Summer Creek was born out of Woodridge’s desire to GO. So from day one, Summer Creek has been involved with missions. This includes helping, serving, teaching, preaching, and singing as we move outside the walls of our church and into the neighborhood, the city, the state, and beyond.
Summer Creek provides many opportunities to get involved in serving the community throughout the year, everything from community events to feeding the homeless downtown. Examples from the past year include: October Outreach, Helping a Hero, community sponsorships, high school faculty breakfasts, Downtown Dinner, and Operation Interdependence.
Annually, Summer Creek takes a family mission trip to Douglas, Arizona and Agua Prieta, Mexico. Adults, youth, and children team up to share the gospel through drama, music, recreation, and crafts. We do this through VBS sites in both churches and soup kitchens on both sides of the border. This is such a great opportunity for families and friends to serve and grow together on the mission field. Check the calendar for meeting and trip dates.
