Spring Serve & Grow
May 1 - 4, 2026
The harvest is plenty!
Serve & Grow is a weekend of service and celebration always greatly anticipated by our community. It’s a work party and a dinner party; a family reunion to which everyone is invited!
There are 101 ways you could participate, but more than anything, you will be linking arms with our year-round staff in one or many areas of ministry. You might find yourself getting involved in maintenance, helping tend our gardens, deep-cleaning our guest spaces - and washing some dishes is just about guaranteed! You can expect delicious food, genuine connection and an opportunity to experience the restorative beauty of Jesus. Whether this is your first or fortieth time at Barnabas, we look forward to welcoming you.
