Servant Week offers a chance for individuals or youth groups to make a difference.

This unique city, surrounded by the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic Ocean, is populated by a wide variety of subcultures – people who have chosen to live here rather than be a part of the mainstream U.S. There is extreme wealth and extreme poverty in Key West. Many of the churches see this mix as a unique opportunity to live our mission as servants and have life-changing experiences. This week will be rounded out with snorkeling, shopping and other fun activities.
