FaLaLaLa...Christmas Shows

Yes, the Christmas shows are coming to Michigan.
Just wanted to put you on alert. I don't have the specific information on each show's needs yet but here are the shows that some of our promoters are bringing to Michigan this season:

12/11 - 2011 Christmas Pageant with Family Force 5, Hawk Nelson & Manafest at Radiant Church in Richland
12/14 in Plymouth at Northridge Church &
12/15 at Grand Rapids First -
The Story Tour, A Christmas Spectacular with Steven Curtis Chapman, Newsboys, Francesca Battistelli, Natalie Grant, Selah, Anthem Lights and special guest speakers Max Lucado & Randy Frazee.
As with most shows that are hosted within a church the volunteer needs at the actual event may be slim or none but the promoters would very much appreciate it if you would help get the word out submits posts on your social media sites, especially facebook about them. Please take a moment to "like" Michigan Christian Events on facebook and then you can easily re-post the information onto your page. It's that easy and sooooo appreciated.

What We Do:

Serve Squared is a group of volunteers who serve at Michigan (& sometimes Ohio) Christian concerts & events. Whether it be helping artists with their merchandise sales, ushering or manning the tables of other non-profits such as Compassion International or Food For The Hungry, we are there and loving every minute of it. Many of these events could not happen or come to the area if it were not for the time-giving generosity of these volunteers. We would love to add you to our database and let you know about future volunteering opportunities. Email servesquared@gmail.com or click a particular event link on this page to sign up for that event. Be sure to "like" us on Facebook so you can see posts of upcoming events or subscribe to this blog so you can keep up with us!

Volunteer Testimonies & Experiences

Kelly C. says, "My fun experience volunteering at the Rock & Worship Roadshow started at the time I crawled in the van with friends to carpool there! It was time well spent with friends. The day started off with positive people to hang with and continued throughout the evening working with the staff of the bands. The people were fun, the music was positive and the atmosphere was heavenly. Thanks for the opportunity to serve."
Michelle L.: "I just wanted to say thank you for calling me to help last night with the concert. The best part was watching the surprise and excitement on the VIP people's faces when I was giving them the free CD!"

Formerly known as 4 the 1 Ministries

4 the 1 Ministries was birthed out of a need by promoters and event production companies for volunteers to help get the word out about and serve at their events. When it began I wasn't exactly sure how this would all pan out. God is the boss and I love that I can indirectly aid in leading people to Christ or help them in their walk with the Lord. I love that I see friendships being built as volunteers look forward to seeing each other at events and continue the relationship long after the event has ended. I love that the artists look forward to coming to Michigan because they know they will be taken care of by our great volunteers. What can I say? I just love this ministry.So why the name change? Simply this...it was time. God is in charge of everything and when I discovered that another ministry, a very important ministry that aids in stopping human traffiking, had snatched up my ministry's name and "dot com-ed" it, instead of getting angry, I knew that God had another plan and almost instantly gave me the new name Serve Squared. This was total confirmation that this ministry is getting favor from God for me. I have total peace with this change and the direction that God is taking it. I am so grateful for the wonderful people God has led and continues to lead into this ministry. I look forward to going down this new path with God and all of you. What a blessing to be able to serve a great and wonderful God and do it in such a fun way!
Shine On,
