Serving is our way of being God’s hands and feet in the world.
There are so many ways to serve, whether it’s here – directly at or for Glen Mar Church, near – in the greater Howard County and Baltimore community, or far – wherever else in the world God calls us to help others and be in relationship with them. Here is a glimpse of the wide variety of ways we show love for our brothers and sisters in Christ.
