Cottonwood’s outreach teams gather regularly to love and serve our local communities. Each team goes out to bring Jesus to those with the greatest needs outside the four walls of the church. By serving on an outreach team, you can make spiritual friendships and grow your faith. Below you will find information about various opportunities and how you can join us in bringing a living Jesus to a dying world by meeting practical needs.
