OUTREACH
ser•vo•lu•tion (noun): a revolution of service
SERVOLUTION is the name of our community outreach ministry at Northpark Church. Our goal is to start a service revolution in our cities and across the world. Serving God and others is our top priority. We believe SERVOLUTION is the difference we as a church need to show people both locally and abroad the love of Jesus. Ultimately, we want to change lives by showing the endless love and grace that is provided to us as followers of Christ.
Specific community outreach efforts and opportunities will be posted below as they arise throughout the year.
Join us for the SERVOLUTION!

MOBILE MARKET
Every 1st and 3rd Wednesday of the Month
For the past five years, Northpark has partnered with The Oaks Community and the Inter-Faith Food Shuttle to host a bi-weekly Mobile Market and provide FREE food for anyone in our community that needs it. Local grocers and farms donate produce, meat, bread, desserts, dry goods, and more, and the Inter-Faith Food Shuttle delivers these donations to The Oaks neighborhood (near Sanderson High School) every other week.
A team of volunteers (that’s us!) helps unload the donation boxes, organize the foods, and then pre-packs large boxes with various foods for those who stop by. The truck typically arrives around 12:30/12:45PM on it’s scheduled weeks and the unpacking/sorting is typically finished between 1:30-2:00PM. Distribution of boxes to those who need them typically happens at the Oaks Community Building between 1:30/2:00 until 3:30/4:00pm.
If you would like to volunteer one or even multiple Wednesdays, or if you would like additional information, contact Stephanie at stephanie@northparkrdu.com!
