OUT Opportunities

To learn more about how to serve, please click here to contact us.

  • EASY OUT

    An “Easy Out” is a low-commitment service project done on our campus after the 10:00 service. This group serves the community with small service activities quarterly at church. They serve 100-110 people at each event.

  • TEEN CHALLENGE

    Members make and serve lunch and play games at the facility. (A Christian program featuring adventure-based therapy for struggling teenagers.)

  • OUT DAY

    On a selected weekend in the fall, the members of Cross of Christ do various serving projects for the Anthem and surrounding communities (helping individual families or organizations with various projects).

  • OCJ KIDS

    We partner with OCJ Kids for training and support of volunteers who regularly visit foster care group homes (mini-orphanages) to do activities, games and mentor the children who live there. It would be great to have you join us! There are also opportunities to volunteer at OCJ Kids events such as the One Bright Star Christmas Party and the Adulting Summit.

    Please contact OCJ Kids at ocjkids.org/get-connected to learn about upcoming training or events.

  • YOUTH FOR TROOPS

    Members help support volunteers with brining in plastic grocery bags (used to make mats for homeless vets), and having periodic Packing Parties boxing and mailing packages to our deployed troops.

  • KIDS' KINGDOM

    Each year we send mission teams of adults and/or students to Kids’ Kingdom orphanages in Imurís and Benjamín Hill, Sonora, Mexico. Our goal is to come alongside the staff of Kids’ Kingdom and support their work to give children a family and tell them about the love of Jesus. While we certainly have a lot of work we hope to accomplish on each trip, our visits are as much (if not more!) about building relationships as they are about accomplishing tasks. It’s been a joy to see God at work through Kids’ Kingdom, to be part of His work to love kids who come from hard places, and to create happy memories for the kids through the special activities we do while there.

  • FOOTHILLS FOOD BANK

    This organization is a resource for our community providing food, meals, angel tree gifts and hygiene items for those in need. We have an ongoing relationship to help fill their shelves with food, Thanksgiving Day meals, hygiene kits and angel tree gifts.

  • MAYER SCHOOL DISTRICT

    We support the Elementary and Middle schools in Mayer School District with food, winter coats, school supplies and additional resources for their students. Most or all of the students are at or below the poverty level. They can’t afford all necessities for their families, so school teachers and counselors assist them as needed with donations.

  • CHOICES AZ PREGNANCY CENTER

    Since 1983, Choices has been serving young women, men, and babies. They provide pregnancy tests, consultations, STD tests and ultrasounds at no cost to their clients. We support them by providing baby items for their boutique and Mom care kits.
