Our older Elementary students go to local nursing homes to provide comfort to our elderly, singing Christmas carols and bringing gifts. Evangel’s Partnership with the Bowery Mission provides service opportunities for our high school students to serve the homeless and less fortunate at the Bowery Mission. Evangel’s annual missions trip for our high school students: last year they went to Spain to serve at the International Mission of BETEL. Evangel’s “Ministry hours” program enables our middle school students to provide service to the school and their peers by volunteering for a number of different duties inside the school. Then logging these items of service including time spent in a spreadsheet and having a staff member sign off on their volunteer hours. Evangel’s partnership with World Vision allows every Evangel class to “adopt a town” in a third world country and  bring in donations for their town and deposit into a class “love loaf”  Then each class decides if they are going to purchase a goat, chickens, etc... for their “adopted town”. Evangel’s Partnership with Samaritan’s Purse and Operation Christmas child give every Evangel student an opportunity to provide a shoebox stuffed with school supplies, toys and basic necessities to a needy child overseas. Annually Evangel sends over 500 shoeboxes.
