Ways for Families to Serve Others Together
Our desire is that students grow in their desire to serve others. A number of service projects are planned each year for each grade level; however, many families desire to serve others as a family. The following ministries are those in which East Cobb Presbyterian Church members participate. If you have questions about any of these ministries, please contact Sherry McCalley in the school office.
