In bible class yesterday we discussed the importance of serving others. We looked at Isiah 58:6-12 where the importance of helping the less fortunate than ourserlves is called for by God as essential to our protection and blessings from God. We are called to be a positive influence and resource to the people we come in contact with.
We discussed our newest service project: the school supply drive . The purpose of the drive is to provide school supplies not only to our own congregations' youth; but more importantly to the community around us. The group was challenged to not only find donations amongst their family, friends, and neighbors, but also among people they don't know.
They were also asked to look among their friends and see if any of them have school supply needs that they can help meet.
