Harvey Relief: Post Harvey Jam

09.17.17 | Serve

    On Sunday, September 10th, UBC Serving Ministries collaborated with Ben Sandstrom and several worship team leaders from the contemporary service to create a community event at the UBC Pavilion called the “Post Harvey Jam.” After surviving Hurricane Harvey and almost two weeks of clean-up, participants were excited to enjoy three hours of live music, smoked BBQ, and socializing. 

    Participants were asked to bring mosquito repellant and sleeping bags to help our local ministry partner, The Mercy Tree. Approximately 100 cans of bug spray were donated along with 60 sleeping bags that Gina Evans, director of The Mercy Tree, gave to homeless clients. Thanks to all who participated and donated to this community event!
