We had an incredible time serving our neighbors last week for Bushwick Love Week showing God's love in practical ways. This included block and park cleanups, hanging basketball nets, giving away hundreds of bottled waters, granola bars and even over 350 lunches!
This would not have been possible if not for the hard work of Victory Baptist and First Baptist Great Falls. Thank you so much for following God's leading in serving the people of Bushwick. Thank you also to those of you who financially contribute to Swerve Church. Your generosity helps to fund these projects and to share the love of Jesus with the people of Bushwick.

We had an awesome time at our Summer Bushwick Basketball Clinic! What a fun time of learning the game of basketball. Children learned how to dribble, shoot, and pass, along with lessons on working hard and good sportsmanship.
We are so grateful to the Longhollow and GenSend teams who helped to make this clinic happen. We are especially grateful to our parents and kids. It could not have been made possible without you! We look forward to providing more opportunities for the beautiful families of Bushwick soon!
