For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.
It is our sincere desire that you get connected, and one of the best ways to do that is through serving. Everyone can get involved and join our church family by volunteering in any capacity. God designed each of us for a purpose, and we went to help you find that purpose.
Below you'll find links to various ministries and other volunteering opportunites. Check them out to see if any of them might be a place for you. If not, maybe you'd like to start your own ministry.

By God's grace we introduce the unhoused members of our community to Christ through our actions in providing for some of their immediate needs while they are on the street awaiting shelter. We provide healthy plant-based food, water, clothing, blankets, sleeping bags, hand warmers, kindness, friendship, and prayer.
We believe that Jesus Christ has provided the best example for us to follow in this mission and in the following scriptures we find the inspiration for our service: Matthew 7:12. Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. Mark 16:15 KJVS. And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
1. During the winter months while the parks are shut down and emergency shelter services are open, we prepare a plant-based meal for (currently about 25 people) and drive from St. John's Park to St. Willebrord's Community Center and to the library, stopping at each site to find people whose needs we can meet.
2. During the months when the shelter is not open on an emergency basis, we set up a canopy tent in St. John's Park and engage with the people in the park. Plant-based meals for (about 50 people) are provided. Many people will carry extra food for later or for a friend in their backpack or purse, so the use of plant-based non-dairy food in our meals is our standard for health and safety.
3. We follow good hygiene and food safety standards in serving our food, and it is served in individual closed-food containers.
4. The community of Green Bay is concerned (as we also are) with maintaining a clean environment in the park. We bring clean up supplies such as garbage bags and cans, gloves, and garbage grabbers so we can do our part to help keep things clean. We work in cooperation and coordination with the larger community to make St. John's Park or any other place we are blessed to serve a better place when we leave it.
People sleeping “rough” in all kinds of weather. They will be seen sleeping under tarps, wrapped in blankets or sleeping bags, on the grass or under the shelter on the cement in winter.
People that are inebriated or agitated and suffering from mental illness. At times these people may use foul and abusive language. You may see people suffering from health issues that require an immediate response (such as a diabetic emergency).
All Street Team members are advised to be cautious and streetwise. Always travel in twos and use common sense when approaching someone you don't know. But if you meet someone, be sure to make proper introductions and remember and use his/her name. It is a common courtesy and helps individuals maintain an aura of dignity.
God has blessed us with many opportunities to listen to, speak with, sing with, share with, and pray with people who need Him desperately. It is in giving that we receive the most.
If you are not able to be a part of the team on the street, there are other opportunities, such as sorting donated items and keeping our storage area organized. Come to a sorting party!
We always need prayer and greatly appreciate the financial support our generous church members provide.
Pathfinders is a Christ-centered scouting type program for both boys and girls grades 5-10. It encourages mental, physical, and spiritual growth. We have fun together while learning about God's word, as well as life skills. We work on interesting honors, go camping, and practice fun activities, while building friends for this life and eternity.

School Website
The Adventist Junior Academy (AJA) has been serving the Green Bay community and educating students since 1943 and has been at its current location since 1958. As part of the Adventist educational school system, our school is part of the second largest denominational school system in the world.
AJA is a Christian school environment that is focused on upholding Christian ethics and is centered on the belief that the knowledge of God is the beginning of wisdom. We teach that a relationship with God is the basis for our fellowship with one another, that the Bible is the infallible Word of God, and that each student is created by God and is blessed with talents and gifts that are uniquely their own.
At our Community Service Center we volunteer to display and disperse donated items that they be free and accessible to those who need them. We adhere to God's admonitions of Matthew 25:35-40 and James 2:15-17.
We are located next to the Fellowship Hall across from the church, and we are open the first and third Wednesdays of the month from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. (The sign in the picture below is incorrect.)

There are various activities that our church provides for the youth. There is a weekly Sabbath School class prior to church every Sabbath focusing on the needs of our youth. During the course of each month we usually have special Friday and Saturday night programs for the youth. The Friday night programs are spiritually-based activities where the youth can share with each other in an open Christian environment.
Some examples of our Saturday night youth activities are things such as mini golf, table games, pizza parties, etc. Periodically through the year we hold special events such as youth rallies that allow youth from all over the state to join us in fun, fellowship, and the worship of God.
Youth events are advertised on the church calendar, so check back for our upcoming events. If you're the parent of youth, please send your kids. If you are a youth, we would love to have you attend our Sabbath School, Friday night programs, or our youth parties. We look forward to seeing you.

The Health Ministry's goal is to follow Christ's holistic ministry on Earth by attending to the whole person—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. This is accomplished in part by education and encouragement in promoting:
Our desire is for our congregation and community to experience a healthful and abundant life and to share these divine principles of health with others in order that all may partake of the bountiful life God has intended.
Prison Ministry facilitators correspond by mail with prisoners throughout the country, providing them with Bible lessons, providing various services, and praying for them.
Through the mail our students receive:
We also share any current offers we are aware of that students can request and receive from other prison ministries that are also grounded in following Bible fundamental beliefs.
Your fervent and continuous intercessory prayers four our students and our ministry.
At times we need more teachers/facilitators. We would love to have an established standby list of people ready for the call when the requests come in. Have you thought about reflecting God's light in a world dimly lit? Please prayerfully consider and assess whether you are being called to this amazing and rewarding work for the Lord.
We also need you to assess whether you are willing to take on the responsibility and the follow-through necessary for you to be a helpful part of this team.
When we assign students, we provide a teacher binder with answer key, checklist, guidelines, and organizational helps. We need any new facilitators to work with at least 10 students.
Most mail takes four to six weeks to cycle back to use; however, some students cycle more quickly. You must also be able to check weekly to see if any mail has come in for you, have your mail picked up weekly, and weekly attend to your mail that is received by praying for, responding to, and sending the mail back in a timely manner.
Our facilitators are Bible-based Christians with a goal of helping students understand the Good News of the Gospel right from the pages of God's Holy Word by prayerfully inviting the Holy Spirit to guide them in their correspondence with each student. They desire to have students build a relationship with a loving God and are interested in assisting students in finding the salvation so freely offered because of Christ's sacrifice on Calvary. Our facilitators are ready to help students understand and make the necessary preparation to meet Jesus when He returns.
Please let us know if you have an interest in this ministry.
Jim: "I just want to thank you for the studies. God is so good. I am in total awe of His faithfulness and love. These studies have, since I started them, always found me right at the place the subjects are on. I thank God for this ministry. I pray it receives all the support it needs to continue the work of the great commission."
Wende: "Thank you for not giving up on me."
Laura: "You're a blessing. I appreciate your time, your prayers, your love. Most of all, your obedience to our Lord. We serve an amazing God."
Marilyn: "Thank you for everything. Please keep praying for my family and myself."
David: "I would like to thank you and the whole church for all the prayers and blessings. I thank you for the books and also the Bible. I appreciate everything."

We need your financial support for the costs of basic materials, Bible studies, postage, envelopes, paper, and ink.
If you feel impressed to contribute to facilitate in the meeting the urgent call to share the Gospel invitation and the Three Angels Message to those in need, there is a line on our tithe and offering envelopes that says "Other," where you can write Prison Ministry along with the amount of your offering. We invite you to prayerfully give as the Holy Spirit leads.
