August 5-8

What Is SERVE Kodiak?
SERVE Kodiak is our opportunity to put our faith into action by sharing the love of Christ throughout our community. Think of it as a mission trip without leaving the island.
On Thursday through Saturday mornings, we'll spread out across Kodiak to serve our neighbors in practical and meaningful ways. Our desire is to help every member of Berean see themselves as one of Christ's 'sent ones,' living out the Great Commission right where God has placed us.
There will be four types of ministry teams serving throughout the weekend:
  • Backyard Kids Clubs (Mini VBS)
  • Labor Projects
  • Mercy Ministry
  • Prayer Ministry
Each team has the same goal: to proclaim and portray the grace of God in both word and deed, demonstrating the love of Christ while faithfully sharing the Gospel. SERVE stands for: See the brokenness in Kodiak, Engage with people's felt needs, Radiate God's love to our community, Verbalize the Gospel, Exalt Christ.

Our prayer is that this will be the first of many SERVE Kodiak weekends. We believe God has placed us on this island to saturate Kodiak with the Gospel, and we want to equip our church to joyfully live on mission together for His glory.
Sign up below and join us as we love, serve, and share Christ with our community!
Who Should Come?
Everyone! Whether you've been at Berean for 6 weeks, 6 months, 6 years, or 60 years, you are welcome and wanted. This weekend is for every member of our church family, from babies to boomers and beyond.
We're also excited to welcome our missionaries to Guatemala, Isaias and Ginny Colop-Xec, who will be with us throughout the weekend. Isaias will be preaching during our evening sessions, and together they will encourage us with what God is doing around the world and challenge us to join Him in His mission right here in Kodiak.
What Will We Be Teaching?
Throughout the weekend, we will journey through 1 Peter, discovering what it means to live as hope-filled exiles in a world that is not our home. Together we'll see how God's grace gives us a living hope, shapes our identity, strengthens us to stand firm in suffering, and calls us to lives of holiness that bear witness to Christ until He brings us safely home.

    There will be 4 types of teams serving our community.  
    Outreach - These teams will prepare and execute Backyard Kids Clubs in the community. Sharing the gospel with Children and showing them the Love of Christ through this mini VBS. This is an excellent option for parents serving with Kids. 
    Labor - These teams will work on small construction and cleanup projects for local families, organizations, and our church. Some of the projects might include rehabbing a local nonprofit's porch, building a small playground, and cleaning up a widow's overgrown yard. You DO NOT need to be a skilled laborer to join this team. 
    Mercy - This team will go out of their way to show mercy to those on the margins of society. They will serve the "least of these" through things like prepping meals for the homeless, ministering in the elder house, and blessing our cannery workers and fishermen. 
    Prayer - This team will pray over and prayer walk the institutions of Kodiak. They will pray over our schools, hospitals, fire stations, police departments, city hall, and many more.
