SLAM serves those in need within our own community with hands-on service opportunities. In daily worship and Bible study, students are challenged to take a deeper plunge into a life of discipleship. Join local area youth groups at Hayes Barton UMC for a week of service, worship, and fun!

Projects: Last year’s projects included Habitat for Humanity, Interfaith Food Shuttle urban garden, Raleigh Food Bank, Pullen Baptist Round Table ministry (feeding the homeless and food insecure), Hayes Barton preschool camps, and making dinner for SAFEchild families. We hope to add more projects this year! Most projects included some kind of education about the organization, what they do, and why they do it. For example, there was an awesome panel on homelessness/misconceptions to go along with the Pullen Round Table project.
