Mission and Justice

Geist Christian Church is committed to identifying and addressing the needs of those whom Jesus called the least, the last, and the lost. Throughout the year, members of Geist Christian Church, embody the hands and feet of God, as they support a variety of non-profit organizations in the local, national, and international communities. Our hope is to co-create God’s kingdom here on earth as we seek creative solutions to the problems that plague those who struggle to secure life’s basic needs.

Current Service Opportunities

Adult Service-Learning Trip

We will be traveling to Kentucky to help rehab a house into a home! Since 2008, Fuller Center for Housing of Louisville has worked with over 100 families in their quest to help low-income families gain permanent, affordable housing. They acquire/purchase vacant, abandoned or foreclosed upon property to restore and utilize for affordable housing for community members. A local church will provide our shelter and showers, we will cook our meals, work during the day and relax in the evenings enjoying community together. Please email serve@geistchristian.org for more information and to sign up!

Changing Footprints Shoe Collection

This year, we're partnering with Changing Footprints to make a difference in the world, one pair of shoes at a time. Whether you have lightly or well-worn shoes or brand new ones you've outgrown, we invite you to drop them off at our designated stations located at both campuses. Any size, any style, any condition—all contributions are welcome! Changing Footprints will ensure that every pair donated will either be given to those in need or responsibly recycled.
