"For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you cam to visit me. . . . . The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'"
Matthew 26:35-38; 40
A Ministry for Each Believer
Garber intends for every person to discover their ministry "sweet spot" on one of our Ministry Teams.
Our Ministry Teams are designed for three functional areas:
1) Church Family - serving and building believers of all ages at Garber UMC
2) Missions (Local & Global) - sharing the Gospel through service
3) Evangelism - sharing the Gospel through word

| EVANGELISM
The world needs the message of Christ.
Garber's intent is for every believer to know and know how to share the story of how s/he chose to follow Christ with a friend.
We encourage each believer to authentically invest themselves in the lives of neighbors, friends, and people who aren't Christians, then invite them to one of our weekend services.
Ministry Teams under evangelism include the promotion, participation, and support of these "Entry Point" events:
Weekend Services
Kick Off Sunday
Trunk 'R Treat
Christmas Eve Services
Wii and Chili Sunday
Easter Services
