Second Saturday is a 501(c)(3) non-profit service ministry founded from Jesus’ words that the most important commandment is to love God with all your heart, soul, and mind and the second most important is to love your neighbor as yourself (Matt 22:37-39).
Second Saturday demonstrates our love for God and our neighbors by showing compassionate love for widows and the orphans (the fatherless) in their need (James 1:27). The ministry service performs repairs on the homes of widows, single-parents, the elderly, and disabled to ensure they are warm, safe, and dry. Second Saturday “Go!” events are intended to get the Church outside of the four walls as part of the discipleship methodology.
The mission is to fulfill the great commission – to make disciples of all nations (Matt 28:19). In relational discipleship a disciple is defined in Matt. 4:19– “Come, follow me and I will make you fishers of men”. Break that down and it can be read as - Follow Jesus, Be transformed by Jesus, and be on mission to make disciples with Jesus.
Second Saturday is intentional in all that we do to support getting people into relationship with one another so that we can be in closer relationship with God. We fulfill the great commission by making disciples that can make disciples just as Paul told Timothy to take what he had been taught and entrust it to men who will be able to teach others (2 Tim 2:2).
The whole mission is to fulfill the great commission by making disciples that can make disciples!.
The vision is to see the mission of Second Saturday seeded through all churches and the methodology used in other ministries supporting discipleship. We are helping churches discover how to serve their congregations and communities. This model and methodology can work for any service ministry with appropriate modifications.
Second Saturday started out supporting widows but has seeded other service ministries that have taken root:
Any church can take our process and methods to start their own ministries for their community for the furtherance of the Gospel through Biblical service using relational discipleship!
