SERVANTS 4 SERVANT DAY!
Saturday, June 14, 9 AM - 4 PM
Mark your calendars for Saturday, June 14, 2025, from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, as we come together for our annual Servants 4 Servant Day! This is a wonderful opportunity for members of our church community to roll up their sleeves and contribute to the upkeep of our beautiful facility, which spans approximately 180,000 square feet. Our church is a cherished space for worship and fellowship, and we need your help to keep it shining bright!
Serving our church not only helps maintain our beautiful space but also allows you to live out your vows of membership. As members, we commit to faithfully participate in the life of the church, pray, be present, give gifts, serve, and witness. As stated in 1 Corinthians 12:4-6, “There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but the same God works all of them in all men.” Let us come together to celebrate our diverse gifts and serve our community!
We are looking for 30 to 40 volunteers to make this day a success. If you’re interested in helping, please visit the signup tables outside the Celebration Center on Sundays, May 25, June 1, and June 8. You can also reach out to Eric Nance at 405-728-4744 or enance@churchoftheservant.com.

The Regional Food Bank is leading the fight against hunger in Oklahoma and envisions a state where no one goes hungry. Founded in 1980, the Regional Food Bank distributes food through a network of more than 1,300 community-based partner agencies and schools in 53 counties in central and western Oklahoma. The Regional Food Bank not only distributes food, it is a leader in educating the public on hunger, advocating for those living with hunger and providing access to additional resources.
Blessing Bags, also known as care kits or necessity bags, are small packages containing essential items like food, toiletries, a prayer card, and sometimes contact information for local shelters, designed to help individuals struggling with homelessness or hardship. The purpose is to provide immediate relief and support to those in need. Here is a link to our Amazon Wish List.
