Serving those in our community.

We are always trying to find new ways to reach out to the community and serve those around us. A few of our service projects include: The Bethlehem Center, Rise Against Hunger, Downtown Partners, Salvation Army and putting on an Easter Egg hunt for Children around the Jackson area.

A breakfast table with waffles topped with strawberries, a side of syrup, a plate with a fried egg, toast, and sausage, a fork, knife, and napkin.

Start your morning off right.

Join us on Thursdays for prayer breakfast at a variety of locations convenient to most of our schools in the surrounding area! We’ll eat together, pray together and enter into our various schools with one another, knowing that the Holy Spirit walks with us as well! See our weekly GroupMe message for specific details.

Room with a gray sofa, a round coffee table, a green armchair, a wooden TV stand with lamps, a wall-mounted TV, wooden flooring, and glass double doors with blinds, decorated with green plants.

Open Gym

Six times a semester, we have an Open Gym Day at Galloway on Wednesdays before Summit. The church provides pickup from car line and takes students back to the church, where they have free use of the gym until dinner begins! They can use this time to play and relax after a long day, or they can make their way up to the youth suite to begin working on homework (or play on the Xbox or play a board game).
