CSL’s motto, “Uniting the World in Love”, takes a variety of forms—loving ourselves, others, our community, and the planet. Just as charity “begins at home”, so too does the gift of service. As the quotes above attest, giving benefits the giver and the receiver. Our own philosophy states that God is the giver and the gift. The same is true for us as manifestations of God. Experience your God-self in service today.

The following ministries give you the opportunity to serve:

• Sunday Service – Provide a hug, handshake or warm welcome to congregants and guests, and participate in setup, collecting the offertory, and take down. If you like people, want to get to know more people, or want to step outside your comfort zone, then this is the ministry for you.
  
  
• Bookstore – The bookstore serves our community by providing valuable resources in the form of books, tapes, gifts and music. Staffing the bookstore is like running a small business – manage cash, provide sales assistance, set up and take down displays.
  
  
• Hospitality – This ministry sets out snacks, prepares coffee and manages the clean up. A fun and tasty way to serve.

• Spirit Academy – Spirit Academy Children’s Church has openings for adults to serve our children on Sundays.  It is a great way to learn and grow and be a part of a ministry that has a direct impact.
  

All of the above ministries are managed by a team leader who is there to teach, love and answer questions. They are there to serve you as you serve. Training is provided and schedules are flexible. Consider how much you will give, and how much you will get in just 3 hours a month.
