Love your neighbor
A hands-on ministry and missions event to meet practical needs and share Jesus.
At Mission Georgia, we believe Georgia is our mission — and loving our neighbors is at the heart of how we live that out.
We’re excited to invite you to Love Your Neighbor, a hands-on ministry and missions experience focused on meeting real needs with gospel-centered compassion and equipping the church to share Christ boldly in our communities.
Friday
Begin with practical breakout sessions designed to help you and your church engage your community with purposeful outreach. These sessions will sharpen your skills and deepen your confidence in serving well. The day continues with dinner and evangelism training to strengthen your ability to share the good news of Jesus with clarity and grace.
Saturday
We’ll step out together into neighborhoods and ministry sites across the region to put love into action. From practical service to intentional gospel conversations, we’ll work side-by-side demonstrating Christ’s love where it’s needed most.
This isn’t just an event — it’s a movement of believers stepping into the everyday needs of our neighbors and communities. Serving together, we reflect the love of Jesus and extend His hope throughout Georgia.
Celebration Dinner
Make plans to stay Saturday evening for a time of rejoicing and testimony. Together we’ll celebrate what God has done through these mission projects and praise Him for the lives changed and the doors He opened for gospel impact.
