SERVE WEEK

A LOCAL CHURCH FOR OUR COMMUNITY

“‘For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.'”

Thanks for making Serve Week 2025 a success! Thanks to your willingness to give your time, talents, and treasures, we were able to have a massive impact all across Kansas City! We’ll catch you at Serve Week 2026 – in the meantime, be sure to sign up for ongoing Community Impact updates.

RACE WITH A POINT

Join us for our annual Race With A Point .5K, the official kick-off to Serve Week! And no, that’s not a typo—we mean .5K. Almost 1/3 mile. 1,640 feet. It’s a race for everyone, with a fun foam finish!

You’ll run, walk, skip, cartwheel, hop, etc. just one-half of a kilometer, knowing that 100% of your entry fee will be donated to RefugeKC, which exists to welcome refugees as our new American neighbors through gospel-focused ministries of mercy. Stick around after the race to get a banana and a medal, and to play in the foam!
