Armed with spatulas, sponges, and lawnmowers, Avondale University students stepped beyond their classrooms and dedicated Friday March 21 to give back through Serve Day. At Morisset High School, students set up early to cook and distribute free pancakes to brighten the morning for students and staff. Near the town centre in Morisset, another team ran afree car wash, scrubbing and rinsing vehicles providing a helpful service. Meanwhile, the third team were out in the community, mowing lawns and tidying yards for residents who needed an extra hand.
Serve Day was a key moment in Festival of Faith, reinforcing the values of kindness and community impact. As the week of spiritual reflection came to an end, students left with a renewed sense of purpose, one that extends beyond the university and into the lives of those around them. Service isn’t just a one-day event, it’s a way of life.
