Community Service

Community Service is at the heart of Emerald Christian College to encourage students to look beyond themselves at other people's needs.

We know that good people make serving others a part of their lives. This also gives our emerging young adults an opportunity to put their facets (Friendly, Appreciative, Compassion, Encouraging, Truthful, Self-control) into practice.

Acts 1:8 (NIV) You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."
