God calls us to love our neighbors, and one of the ways we do that is by serving our community. Throughout the year, First McKinney partners with local schools, ministries, and organizations to meet practical needs and share the hope of the Gospel. Whether we're opening our campus as an emergency warming shelter during extreme weather, partnering with Finch Elementary to support students, teachers, and families, caring for neighbors facing difficult circumstances, or serving alongside trusted ministry partners throughout McKinney, every opportunity to serve is an opportunity to live and love like Jesus. Join us as we build relationships, meet needs, and share the hope of Christ throughout our community.
Join our global missions & mission trips
We believe God calls His Church to serve both our neighbors and the nations. That's why we hold missions in balance—serving locally and internationally, both valued and neither neglected.
Throughout the year, we pray for the missionaries, church planters, and ministry partners First McKinney supports around the world, asking God to strengthen their work and advance the Gospel among the nations.

Why serving is part of Christian discipleship
Serving isn't just something we do. It's part of who we're becoming as followers of Jesus. That's why Serve Others is one of the four steps in First McKinney's Discipleship Pathway.
As we use our time, talents, and treasures to serve others, God grows our faith, strengthens His Church, and uses us to help others live and love like Jesus.
Serving isn't about filling a need; it's about faithfully living out the purpose God created you for.
One of the beautiful things about serving is that God changes more than the lives of those being served—He changes the hearts of those who serve as well. As you use your time, talents, and treasures to love others, you'll build relationships, grow in your faith, and experience the joy of being part of what God is doing through His Church.
Whether you begin by serving one Sunday a month or find yourself serving in a long-term ministry, every step of obedience has the potential to make an eternal impact.
