Well, for service roles within the ministry, I think my spots already been chosen for me, and it's one I enjoy. I love to sing with the band. That's one of my favorite things to do.
As for outreach and service projects in general, like Stef, I think we should give back, but I also think we should give back more to the community around us. I love doing Shoes for Orphaned Souls, and things like that, but I think too often we forget about those in need around us. I would, and Brandon kind of stole my idea, but I can't help it, I've been thinking about this for a while..., like to take people to visit nursing homes, hospitals if they'll let us, and such like that. There's also the Salvation Army, though I've heard they're rarely lacking for help. Another idea that I've heard of was, and this would probably involve mainly girls, but guys are welcome to join in, is making afghans and quilts and such. There are places who will give them away to teenage girls with babies, or there are women's shelters, or even sending them overseas to our troops in care packages. These can be knit, crocheted, sewed, whatever your passion is. And they are very welcomed. For that it's just a matter of finding who takes donations and such.
Those are my ideas. Feel free to add input or give me info if you know about such places.
