Idle Hands vs. Helping Hands ~Part 6~

Misc. things to do for ministry:

~ If you like to garden: plant one or add on to the one you have for the purpose of giving it away. Give the vegetables and fruit to a family who might be struggling financially or to the elderly you know who are on a fixed income.

~ Help by schooling your siblings or other children you know. I did this for two years right after I graduated. The children I schooled were my little brother and two other children whose mother had left them. Ask your Mom about this, she might not want you to take over all the schooling on a child, but might like a hand for a few subjects.

~ Just being available to the people in your community or church is a great thing! Sometimes the head librarian at the library in town will ask us to come in and rearrange to books because we have made it known to her that if she ever needed help we were available to help. Letting people know that you are willing to help wherever needed is a wonderful ministry!

~ If you can play an instrument well, why not set up with the nursing home in your community to come in and play for the people living there. I know the elderly love this! Again, it is a great way to get to know them.
