The Long-term Impact and Benefits
of ServeFest Columbus

While ServeFest is an event that officially lasts one day each fall, its true impact and the benefits it provides will go far beyond that day. It is through this day of caring that lives and attitudes are truly changed. By showing true compassion towards our city, we are able to impact the Columbus area in the following long term and far reaching ways.

• We create awareness in the community of the works of compassion that are being done all year long by local churches and ministries.
• We connect people with churches and ministries to minister to their on going physical and spiritual needs.
• We connect churches, organizations and ministries with resources, people and finances for other long term work to be done together. Our hope is that partnerships will develop between churches and the areas and households they ministered to during ServeFest for the purposes of developing long term relationships.
• We bring credibility of the church to the minds of the unsaved as we show compassion to our communities.
• We display in a very real and tangible way that the church is not here simply to build our own buildings and to give to only our purposes, but to be a blessing to our cities.
• We bring about unity with a purpose among churches and the at large community.
