    Steps to take after ‘ServeNC’

    In early August, communities across North Carolina were met with open arms by nearly 1,200 N.C. Baptist churches through an “on mission together” initiative known as “ServeNC.” But now that the weeklong emphasis has wrapped up, what’s next for churches?  On this week’s episode of the N.C. Baptist podcast, three N.C. Baptist team members — Antoine Lassiter, Barry Murry and Casey Norkett — share stories of how God moved across the state, how churches met needs and how “ServeNC” can serve as a catalyst for evangelism in your church.  As you plan to foster relationships that were developed this summer, here are some ways you can continue to love your community in Jesus’ name. Pray for people you met during “ServeNC” and for the relationships your church can develop with the community.  Volunteer with Baptists on Mission. Learn more at BaptistsOnMission.org. Help mobilize N.C. Baptists for missions by supporting the N.C. Missions Offering at GiveNCMO.com. Give the gift of relief for today, and hope for tomorrow.
