Engage Wichita
“Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!”
Philippians 4:4
SEPT 10, 2022 | 8:00-4:00*
*Volunteers are asked to meet at Holy Cross at 8am for breakfast, shirt distribution, and a short devotion. We will then go out to our service sites. Not all sites will be all day projects. Lunch will be served at all day site locations.
We are equipped and empowered by God to go out and engage with the world around us. We can think of no better way to “go and do likewise” (Luke 2:10) than to head out into the community and serve our neighbors. During our upcoming church/school-wide day of service, Engage Wichita, we will work on diverse service projects at sites all across Wichita. We hope to use this opportunity to get a little outside our comfort zones, be a blessing to our community, get to know new people, and use our hands and our hearts to reflect our Savior, Jesus.
To make this happen we need volunteers!! Please use the form below to volunteer. Also, be sure to check out the details about service locations and let us know if you’d like to volunteer for a specific project site.
Service Locations
We are working with the city of Wichita to help residents around town that are currently in violation of city ordinance and are in need of home repair and clean up to avoid fines and court intervention.
This project will have multiple locations around town and include yard clean up and minor contruction projects.

We look forward to connecting with Ability Point for Engage Wichita and help them begin preparations for the annual Christmas Lights Fundraiser.
AbilityPoint provides more than 300 unique programs and activities that help improve the lives of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families through life-long support including educational and social programs, case management, respite opportunities and advocacy in the community.

Erin Is Hope Foundation, is a not-for-profit organization who offers speech, Occupational, and Physical therapies for children of all ages.
This small clinic does big work for many incredible children and we look forward to working with them again to help them paint classrooms and wax floors.
If you would like to work on projects that can be done sitting down and that are not time intensive we will be packing shoebox kits for Operation Christmas Child as well as projects for Embrace and hosting a bed build for CarePortal (see below)

Our Care Portal team will be hosting a bed build to put together more bed kids for children entering the foster care system.
Supplies will be provided and there will be projects for people of all ages. This is an “until it’s finised” project at Holy Cross, but volunteers may choose to work as much as their schedule allows.
