Pathways

“This is My commandment, that you love one another, just as I loved you.” John 15:12

God is calling each of us to do more to love our city. Bellevue’s Serve Out Pathways exist to create opportunities for members to engage our city with the Gospel. We believe that by loving Cordova, serving local churches, and caring for the vulnerable through compassion ministries, we can begin to fulfill God’s commandment to love each other as Jesus loves us.

“Seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf; for in its welfare you will have welfare.” Jeremiah 29:7

The Bible teaches us that God has called us to love our community. Cordova Pathways provide opportunities to serve our neighbors and to share the Gospel right where God has placed us.

“In everything I showed you that by working hard in this manner you must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’” Acts 20:35

In Scripture, we see a clear call to help those that are vulnerable. The homeless, under-resourced, refugees, and others are a few examples of groups who are at-risk in our community. Compassion Pathways offer strategic ways that we can serve those that are in need within our community by meeting tangible needs and creating gospel-centered relationships.

“so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another.” Romans 12:5

As we partner with surrounding churches, the Bible tells us that we are all one Body and are united with one purpose. By partnering with and strengthening other local churches, we can better reach our community with the Gospel together.

Opportunities coming soon!

Serve Rock Creek Apartments

Whom you will serve:

The Rock Creek Apartments are only one mile away from Bellevue’s campus and are home to a diverse community of people.

Through this Pathway, we work alongside our on-site ministry team to reach Rock Creek’s residents with the Gospel.
