Share The Work

Share the work. Use your gifts. Build his Church. God has given every follower of Jesus unique spiritual gifts, passions, and experiences. When we serve using those gifts, the Church is strengthened, people encounter Jesus, and we experience the joy of partnering with God.

At Sanctus, serving isn't about filling a gap; it's about finding your God-shaped place in the body of Christ.
