Gilbert is rich with beautiful faith traditions, offering countless opportunities to gather, reflect, and worship throughout the week. Whether you’re seeking quiet moments or community connection, there’s something here for you.

Let this week be one of intention, reverence, and renewal. 🌿✝️

Did you know our monthly board meetings are open meetings? Come join us! We’d love to see you there!

Gilbert is honored to host this year’s East Valley Mayor’s Prayer Breakfast, and you’re invited to join us for this special morning of faith, unity, and community.

Leaders and neighbors from across the East Valley will gather at the beautiful Riparian Preserve at Water Ranch to pray for our cities, our state, and our nation.

This year’s breakfast also supports
AZCEND, helping provide food, housing support, and essential services for families across our community.

Attend or become a sponsor and be part of this meaningful regional tradition.

As our nation approaches the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States, communities across the country are finding meaningful ways to celebrate. Here in Gilbert, we have a powerful opportunity to do what this town does best—serve.

For Our Town Gilbert is launching a community-wide goal of 25,000 hours of service in honor of America 250.

We invite every resident, family, school, business, church, and community organization in Gilbert to take part. Service can be big or small—what matters is that we come together as a town to strengthen our community through acts of kindness and contribution.

Here’s how people can participate:

Find ways to serve
Residents can discover volunteer opportunities throughout Gilbert by visiting JustServe.org or scanning the “Find Ways to Serve” QR code on the flyer.

Serve in any way that helps our community
Volunteer through an organization, help a neighbor, participate in a community project, or serve through a school, church, or workplace.

Track and log service hours
Participants can scan the “Log Your Hours” QR code on the flyer or click here to record their service time.

Include past service hours
To help us recognize the incredible service already happening in our community, hours can be logged retroactively starting from January of this year.

Our goal is simple but powerful:
25,000 hours of service from the citizens of Gilbert in honor of America’s 250th birthday. (We will also be submitting these hours to the Nationwide America 250 Service Tracker.)

We invite you to help us launch this effort by:

• Sharing the attached flyer with your networks
• Posting the campaign on your social media channels
• Encouraging your members, employees, and volunteers to participate
• Tracking and reporting the service your organization is already doing

Gilbert has always been a community that shows up for one another. Together, we can demonstrate what civic pride looks like in action.

Let’s show the country what service in Gilbert looks like.

Hey friends 👋

If you've been following the news, you know things are tough right now for a lot of families in our community. People are struggling to put food on the table, and our local food banks are busier than ever.

We just updated our website to make it super easy to help out during this critical time - because honestly, we can't wait around for things to get sorted out at higher levels. People need food now.

Here's the deal:
Want to volunteer? We'll connect you with local pantries
Got extra groceries? We'll show you where to drop them off
Able to donate a few bucks? Every dollar helps feed a neighbor

Check out www.forourtowngilbert.org to see how you can jump in.
This is just about taking care of each other while things are uncertain. No judgment, no red tape—just neighbors helping neighbors get through a rough patch.
