Serve with us locally or regionally
We serve using the gifts and talents God has given us. We believe the ultimate goal of a Christ follower is to be a servant. Immanuel is committed to leading people to Jesus and equipping disciples in their faith.
One way to experience growth in our faith is through loving our neighbors.
Throughout our 100+ year history, God has blessed us with local ministry partnerships.
YYou can make a difference in the community. Consider one of the following ways to serve today.
Local School Partnerships
- Commit to read in a classroom once a month at one of our partner schools
- Work with after school programs at one of our partner schools
- Join a teacher/staff encouragement team at one of our partner schools
- Mentor a student
International Students
Every semester, hundreds of international students are living on UK’s campus
and would love to be invited into an American’s home. This is a great way for us
to show Christian hospitality and may open the door for a gospel conversation.
Consider becoming a friend to an international student.
