Reaching Out


NarrowPath's Compassion Kids:
    Compassion International exists as a Christian child advocacy ministry that releases children from spiritual, economic, social and physical poverty and enables them to become responsible, fulfilled Christian adults. As a community, NarrowPath sponsors these two Compassion kids.  At NarrowPath every week we take an offering for these kids specifically.

Missions    
    Christ the Rock is involved in many global bridges and outreaches. A number of mission trips are available for students at NarrowPath. For more info about these trips visit the discovery trips page.

Hayward (fall) and Mexico ( early summer)
These outreaches are not specific to NarrowPath, but are designed to help high schoolers and youth get involved with this ministry. If you are interested in either of these outreaches, you can contact Don Nickols in the church offices.


Community Outreaches
There are some community outreaches being formulated right now as winter approaches. Check out the volunteer page (or community opportunities page) to get involved in Christ the Rocks ministry, or hop into a local outreach through another organization.

NarrowPath

U4C (The Columbus Project)
Summer

This outreach is designed for kids in great need of Christ. Columbus Elementary is a school located on the west side of Appleton, containing one of the poorest, and high crime rate neighborhoods. On friday nights from 6:30 - 8:00 activities and games help engage the kids into some healthy fun and good influence. The kids have a blast hanging out with high schoolers! If you are interested in joining, contact one of the staff at the office.

Servant Saturdays
NarrowPath is just starting up ministry called "servant Saturdays." What it is going to involve will be going, once a month, to reach out in different places. Outreaches can range anywhere from christmas caroling to shoveling someone's driveway (for winter). It is not a finalized ministry yet, but if you are interested in serving with other students, once a month on a saturday, contact us!
