What?
Mighty Warrior Bus Ministry is a local ministry to
children, most of whom come from dysfunctional families, single
homes, and drug-related situations. Based on Ephesians 6,
the ministrys name reflects their goal: to train this
disadvantaged children how to be warriors in the daily struggles
of life. About 100 children come to Saturday
Church each week via the buses, but this number is
increasing (praise God!). You will be helping get
kids on and off the bus, interacting with them, and assisting in
whatever way necessary to help them hear about the word of God,
which is the whole point of Saturday Church (but Saturday Church
is geared toward kids--with games, meals, gifts, skits, and, of
course, the word of God).
Who?
People who want to love on kids to bring God glory.
If you would like to love on some kids who really need to see
what love looks like, then you are strongly encouraged to
do this as a service project.

When?
On Saturdays Bus Pick-up Time 9:45 am (you will need
to be there earlier than this, of course; please contact Yvonne
Contreras for meeting time, etc. 785-5871). Service 11 am to
12:30 pm Drop off Time 1:00 pm
Final comments: This is a wonderful way to pour the love of Christ on kids who may not get to see that much love from adult figures in their lives. Jesus Himself said, Let the little children come to Me, so embracing these children is definitely what Jesus Himself would & did do. Also, because this ministry is on Saturdays, there shouldnt be any conflicts with classes. Moreover, Yvonne Contreras is one of our Phi Lamb sisters, and this would be a great way to support the ministry that the Lord is doing in such a direct and personal way. You are still only required to do a minimum of 4 service hours this semester (8 hours if you didnt complete your hours from the previous semester). The good thing about this opportunity is that you arent locked into an all-semester commitment; that is, you could just help out one Saturday, if thats what you want to do. Direct all further questions regarding this service project to Yvonne Contreras (785-5871)
