At Sycamore Baptist Church, missions and service is something we encourage all our members to participate in. As you follow Jesus and grow in your love for God and others, you should be motivated to serve the world and reach the lost.

Outreach

Spreading the gospel is not an event or a team we are calling you to, rather it is a lifestyle. A lifestyle where you are living “on mission” as a missionary in your own community. We believe, if you do that — if you live as missionaries in your own community — then spreading the gospel and making disciples won’t be difficult because it is apart of the natural rhythm of your life.

Serve

To help you serve others, we want you to join one of our service teams. These teams will help you grow and follow Jesus in serving others, whether they are in our church or community.

We are always looking for volunteers in our nursery. Please see Laune Pitts if you are interested in serving in this area.

Sycamore Baptist supports the More Precious Than Rubies Ministry that helps women that may be homeless or in an abusive situation get back on a firm foundation with Jesus Christ. All women receive one on one guidance to prevent them from being homeless ever again such as: getting their Driver’s License, Obtaining GED, Family Counseling, Financial Counseling, Attending College or Trade School, etc. The women who come to More Precious Than Rubies are put on strict guidelines that are not for everyone but will give them a good foundation in the future and build a relationship with Jesus Christ. If you would like to learn more about More Precious Than Rubies Ministry, volunteer, or make a donation, please visit their website at http://www.morepreciousthanrubies.org
