How We Serve
How We Serve is a part of our discipleship path to serve at Elevate Life. We meet online for one hour every Wednesday at 7 PM! This is a fun and informative experience for all new servant leaders. We love that this class provides practical tools to not only serve at Elevate Life but also serve in your home, work place, or anywhere you may go.

Teams
Each week at Elevate Life, hundreds of people just like you give their time to serve. Whether it’s helping kids learn about Jesus, hosting guests online and in services, or serving behind the scenes with Production, every person is meant to make a difference at Elevate Life!
We know you’re busy, and a million things are competing for your time. But we also know you’ll meet new friends and grow in your relationship with God when you start serving.
If you aren’t sure yet where you would like to start serving, we welcome you to look below to see all of the serving opportunities that are available for you!
