Season of Giving 2024
Outreach
Every season brings new opportunities for you and your family to serve God, meet new people, be in community with others and experience the joy of the Lord. The best part about summer is that you get all of that, as well as opportunities to get active! Ward Church offers an array of activities, serving opportunities and fun amenities that encourage you to get out the door and move while on mission!

Ward Woods trails, year-round
Did you know that Ward Church has a system of trails located directly behind the ball fields? These trails even connect to Northville’s Legacy Park, for even more hiking and mountain-biking options! This summer, Ward Church will be constructing a new trailhead into the woods with the help of a local Eagle Scout. Stay tuned on how you can help serve!
