Teach Compassion and Reach Out to those with Health Problems
As it happens, we were learning the story of Jesus calming the sea. On one Sunday, our pastor changed her already prepared sermon to preach on this text and spoke about love casting out fear.
We shared ways for families to show love that casts out fear to the world by:
- Purchasing bags of food for an emergency food bank for kids in our area who depend on school breakfasts and lunches
- Asking children at home to make cards for people who are isolated in assisted living or elsewhere
- Opening a room of books we have to stock Little Free Libraries to families who want to pick up reading material
- and by offering to run errands for shut-ins.
I'd love to learn how others are supporting families at home, now and in the future.
