Check out this email we received from Guts Church about Servolution.

We are gearing up for the pre-Easter project, Servolution Tulsa. There is a great chance that this will take our church and possibly this community to another level.
We have well over 1000 people in our church signed up to serve in one or more outreaches for Servolution Tulsa. That alone will change the way so many people live their lives and there are at least that many people committed from area schools and athletic teams.
Our two main objectives are to rally our church along with the people who serve with us and to provide a big dose of hope to people who may be suffering around us.
We are prepping to clean parks with fallen trees from last year’s ice storm, provide help to single moms, landscape and repair homes for the elderly, visit nursing homes and pediatric wards in area hospitals, and distribute blankets and meals to the homeless.
Wow, have you ever heard of anything like this?
It’s easy to get hooked up with this, what other excuse can you muster to sit this one out? Come on, let’s make history.
We have great services planned for Sunday as we bring relief and hope to people with the Promises of God’s Word, come early and bring some friends.

Stay strong,
Pastor Bil

This Friday, I will be talking live with my friend Greg Surratt , Lead Pastor at Seacoast about how to develop a culture of serving in your church. As we approach 7 Days of Servolution, one of the biggest questions we’ve been hearing is “How can we make Servolution more than just an event for our church? How do you make it part of your church’s culture?”

Over the past few years, Greg Surratt has done just that. Just a few months ago, Seacoast opened a Dream Center and now lives are being changed for eternity on a daily basis. Seacoast is experiencing a revolution in serving…or a “servolution” as we call it. The best news is that it can happen to you and your church too!

I’d love it if you’d join us at 10am Central Time (11am Eastern Time) for what I’m sure will be an interesting dialog between the two of us.
