This project is a wonderful opportunity for families to serve in Somotillo, Nicaragua. We are partnering with Dr. Don Gillette and his wife, Pam, through Because We Care Ministries. Lock arms with us as we care for the poor, give your lives away to share the love of Christ, and serve the city alongside this ministry in the name of Jesus.

Would you like to be personally involved in reaching the nations without having to leave Birmingham? If you would, Dawson has an opportunity for you show the love of Christ with our international friends living among us. In the weeks ahead we will re-open our English as a second language ministry that we discontinued due to the pandemic. Our first step in this process is to enlist a director for the ministry. Our director works directly with Dawson’s mission office to communicate with volunteer teachers and conduct classes that meet on Thursday mornings from 9:00 a.m until 10:30 a.m. Each Thursday, classes are offered for multiple ability levels that include beginning, intermediate, and advanced students. If you are interested in learning more about how you can serve our international friends, please contact Ben Hale at bhale@dawsonchurch.org.

Do you love food, dessert, coffee, and lots of laughter? The Hospitality Ministry is looking for volunteers to assist with both weekly and occasional events. If this is something you are interested in and would like to learn more, please contact Amy Turnbow, Director of Hospitality, in the Church Office.
