SERVANT
EVANGELISM...
...is
the act of sharing God’s love in practical, unexpected, and simple
ways. It is an opportunity to introduce people to our friend, Jesus,
by demonstrating God’s love through acts of service with no strings
attached.

Ways we've shared God's love...
A group from Immanuel
spent the morning of February 14 (Valentines Day) showing God’s love by
handing out free donuts and coffee to more than 120 individuals and several
area offices, banks, schools and fire stations in and around downtown Lexington.
35 dozen donuts and 4 gallons of coffee were served on a cold rainy morning.
Our first project
attempt was to give out over 2000 cold bottles of water to soccer match participants
and spectators during the Bluegrass Games at Masterson Station Park last summer.

Study class gave boxes of food and water to folks in the waiting rooms at Central
