Cleaning Team

But everything should be done in a fitting and orderly way.
1 Corinthians 14:40

Our Cleaning Team has been an integral part of the work of the people since our beginning at the Seventh Day Adventist location. DaySpringers willingly take the time to tend and care for our buildings and create a clean, hospitable environment to learn about and worship God.
