We are Called to Serve

Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others,
as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms.  1 Peter 4:10 (NIV)

God calls us uniquely and equips each of us with special talents. You can make a unique contribution in the body of Christ and we want to help put your gifts and passions to work. At Southwood Lutheran, we offer serving opportunities at Southwood, in the community and around the world.

The Volunteer Hub is the perfect place to explore all of our opportunities.

Christmas Giving Trees

Christmas Giving Trees at Southwood

Giving Trees are up in the narthex, filled with Christmas wishes from our Mission Partners and Southwood families. By taking a tag from the trees at Southwood or online, you can fulfill a wish and brighten Christmas for a child, a woman escaping abuse, or a family going through crisis.

Online tags are available at:  Online Giving Trees

Bring your new, unwrapped gift (include original Giving Tree tag) or have it shipped directly to Southwood by Sunday, December 8.
