Single's Blessings

[caitlincares]

How do you bless others in the real world (vs internet world)?

As Singles we potentially have more time to do ministry to others.

Just curious what others have done or do still do.



Some Ministries that come to mind:

* Nursing Home Ministry -
being part of weekly or monthly service
actually visiting with individual patients who never get visits from family

* Prison Ministry -
visiting those in prison - maybe even participating in their services
writing prisoners and sending birthday and Christmas cards
ministering to their loved ones who may need a babysitter to see their loved ones

* Shut In Ministry (not sure if there is a better name) -
reaching out to church members who can not get to church on a regular basis
maybe just calling on occasion but actual visits also nice
this may include driving them to doctors or doing errands for them

* Food pantry and/or delivering food to shut ins

I do literacy tutoring. It's very rewarding, but requires a LOT of patience! I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a volunteer opportunity.

I lead a house church, between that and work I keep a pretty full life. Not sure if I'd even have time for a relationship if one came along.

i create art and give them away on a whim for others to enjoy cept when i'm asked to make something specific, for which i charge a fee. about a 10:1 ratio for that.
