The Big Rake
Serve and Share with us in 2026!
Sunday, November 15, 12:00 to 4:00 pm
Volunteering with The Big Rake is more than just raking leaves—it's about reaching out to our neighbors in Affton, Crestwood, Kirkwood, Webster, and beyond who may be quietly struggling. Whether it's someone facing a tough season, feeling isolated, disconnected from church, or simply overwhelmed by life, this is our chance to serve them in a practical, loving way.
We'll kick things off with a pep rally at 11:30 AM in the gym, followed by a free lunch for all volunteers. Then, teams will head out with yard waste bags, bottled water, and plated cookies to rake yards and encourage people in our community who could use a little extra support.
Bring your rakes, gloves, and any tools you prefer, and come ready to serve, connect, and show the love of Christ in a practical way.
