Saturday of Service











For our last day of the Challenges for the Heart series at Orchard Hill, we invited people into our community to serve for a morning. It also happened to coincide nicely with National Family Volunteer Day.
In the first two photos, Laura and Sara Hoy helped change all burned out bulbs on the wreaths that will be put up in downtown Waterloo for the Christmas season. Next, Marcia and Vern Hansen stand next to Cindy who works at Main Street Waterloo, and Jose, a fellow volunteer, right before heading out to pick up trash in the downtown area.
Lastly, the group posing by the Christmas tree volunteered at Alternatives Crisis Pregnancy Center. They spent the morning cleaning and decorating the center for Christmas.
What a great way to get to know more about our community and get to know people...all while helping to serve a person or organization!
