ForColumbia was founded in 2015 with a simple mission: to bring Christians together to share God’s love by serving our community, side by side. We do this by organizing volunteers annually from Christian churches throughout Columbia to serve individuals, non-profit organizations and other public venues in a city-wide day of service.
Now in its eighth year, more than 75 Christian churches have participated at least once in this effort, including eight congregations that have partnered every year since 2015. The global pandemic has changed a lot of things about the way we live. But it has not changed our desire to be out in our community, loving and serving our neighbors. Even in 2021, we had more than 1,200 volunteers who served at nearly 50 locations. In 2022, we anticipate more volunteers and more opportunities to meet the needs of those in our community who need it.
While it’s true that much about our day-to-day lives look different these days, we take comfort in knowing that God has not changed. He is still moving his people to express a sacrificial love for others. We trust that He will continue to bring more and more believers together to serve their neighbors for His glory!
