Love Days

Go. Serve. Love.

These three words describe how we seek to obey God and compassionately serve others. This is our quest. An external focus that meets the needs of others is something extremely close to God’s heart. As we go, serve, and love in our backyard and around the world we get a chance to partner with God and be part of His plan to bring hope to the world. With words of love and works of love we want to selflessly serve our neighbors, schools, and communities while helping the defenseless, marginalized, and oppressed. We do this in our own backyard and through strategic partnerships around the world. We do all of this without expecting anything in return. We do this because it’s what Jesus would do.

Go. Serve. Love. In Our Backyard.

Love Days are our church-wide initiatives where we simply serve our surrounding communities. These Love Days are exciting events where we get a chance to make a difference right where we live. Through partnering with organizations, schools, and ministries, we have the opportunity to meet practical needs while serving others without expecting anything in return.

ValleyPoint partners with ministries and organizations right here in the Delaware Valley, who are committed to making a difference. Go. Serve. Love. in our backyard gives us a chance to repair and restore while making a difference where God has placed us.

Sunday, March 19th – Collection Love Day!

UrbanPromise Wilmington (UPW) is dedicated to equipping children and young adults with skills necessary for academic achievement, personal growth and leadership. For 20 years, UPW has worked with Wilmington’s most under resourced children and young adults through our schools, UrbanPromise School (elementary) and the UrbanPromise Academy (high school) as well as through After School and Summer Camps.

UrbanPromise offers FREE camp for 6 weeks of summer to any child in the city of Wilmington, and typically, over 550 children will attend one of our 7 camps located throughout the neighborhoods of the city. We hire and train over 55 city teens to help us run our camps, and there will be over 30 college-age interns who volunteer their summer to teach our camp classes. A team of writers creates our 6-week curriculum, including Bible, rec, art, and an academic-based class we call Zany Brainy. We weave the gospel and truth of Jesus Christ into our Bible lessons, craft projects, rec classes, and even into our crazy-fun skits! We witness hearts transformed in our campers, parents, teen StreetLeaders, interns, work team members, volunteers, and staff.
