I am starting a ministry and i am not sure what to name it, it is more bothersome than i would have thought. Ill give you a brief picture of what it will look like.
I hope to get college students from all around my town to go out in groups of three or so and go out and just do random kind things to people. walk um to there cars with umbrellas when it rains, give out food to homeless people, or not homeless people, buy someone coffee, whatever and i want them to pray and ask God what he wants them to do each day they do it. A lot of people have expressed interest. Here is the mission statment i have made as it stands

*Insert name here* is a unaffiliated multi-congregational ministry purposed with uniting the body of Christ that dwells in Salem, Oregon, and To showing the love of Christ in an active way, through acts of service and kindness. At the same time we hope to equip believers with the faith required to live a lifestyle of kindness through regular intersession, worship, the study of Gods word, and accountability.

thank you all :D

love your idea :) All the best to you in that venture!

how about just "Acts" or "Hands On" or something that depicts the action/interaction emphasis of the ministry? Honestly, I'm not a big fan of ministry names that sound cliche or overly spiritual. I think that if it's going to be humble, make the name humble. If it's going to be unimposing, make the name and the literature unimposing... stuff like that.
