What is Kingdom Service?

Back to Glossary
Quick answer

Kingdom Service is serving others in response to the love and example of Jesus, with humility, compassion and a concern for God's purposes.

Definition

What does Kingdom Service involve?

Kingdom Service asks students to notice the needs of others, contribute faithfully and reflect on what it means to love their neighbour.

Why it matters

Why this matters for parents

Service can develop empathy, gratitude, responsibility and an outward-looking understanding of leadership. It also helps students see that their gifts can benefit others.

Covenant's Approach

Learning through the lens of Christ

Christ came not to be served but to serve. Covenant therefore presents service as a response to grace, not as a way to earn recognition or prove personal worth.

In school life

In the classroom and beyond

The Micah Project and other school, family or community opportunities invite students to connect learning and discipleship with practical acts of service.
