Service Opportunities

Tree of Life School

Comstock Community Outreach

Alternatives of Kalamazoo

 Tree of Life’s mission is to provide a transformative Christian education to a broad range of children who may not otherwise be able to receive one. Our congregation would like to help this school by serving them lunch on the first Thursday of the month in November, December, and January. If this goes well, we may wish to extend our commitment. We hope that by serving Tree of Life we may also expand our presence in the community and learn of other ways we might be able to serve families in need Please contact Carolyn DeVries to help donate, serve, or prepare food.
