Hi everyone, if you’re looking to serve somewhere at Compass Bible Church the Tear Down Team needs some help! The Tear Down Team serves on Sundays from 12:15pm to 1:15pm every weekend. Even if you can only serve every other week it would be a big help. You can fill out a form at https://www.compassbible.tv/serve or you can contact Cody Davidson at cody@compassibible.tv if you’re interested.
Are There Partners Graduates Who Can Help? - If there are any Partners graduates in your group who would like to serve at the Partner’s table on Sundays, please have them contact cody@compassbible.tv. They will answer questions about the program, help interested congregants understand the process, and help get those who are interested signed up!
