RLC Day of Service (Operation Inasmuch)
Saturday, April 25 from 8:00 am-Noonish

RLC will participate in local service projects under the heading of Operation Inasmuch this year on Saturday, April 25. This Day of Service is a way for us to put our faith into action and make a difference in the life of others.

The event starts at 8:00 am in the Family Life Center with a breakfast prepared by the RLC Men’s Group and time of fellowship. After breakfast at 9:00 am, we split out into our groups to complete our service. End time is noon or earlier, if the project is completed. Some groups will stay on campus while others will travel. There will be activities for all age groups.
