Ministry Highlights: Service Day 2020 Recap

 |  Ministry Highlights  |  Dr. Wayne Splawn

At Mountain Brook Baptist Church we aspire to "Love God. Live with Grace and Generosity." One of our regular expressions of living with grace and generosity is our annual Service Day. On Saturday, October 3 just over 100 people demonstrated the love of Christ through acts of service that will touch lives across the greater Birmingham area and beyond. Volunteers engaged in projects in our church gym, at Restoration Academy, and at Cornerstone Middle School

Project at Cornerstone Middle School

At Cornerstone Middle School, a private Christian school located in the Huffman area, volunteers assembled six picnic tables that students will be able to utilize during lunch and other break times.

Projects at Restoration Academy

At Restoration Academy, a private Christian school in Fairfield, Alabama, volunteers worked on projects in a green space area on campus. Our church provided and installed sod in this area last year and we were able to improve the area by:

  • Installing a patio area for picnic tables
  • Staining picnic tables 
  • Installing sun shades to provide more usable space for outdoor classrooms

Volunteers also worked on cutting grass, trimming bushes, and various landscaping projects around the Restoration Academy campus.
