To whom are we called to minister? How are we called to do it? What’s God’s will regarding our community identity?

About Me
Welcome
Welcome to the Holy Spirit’s outreach blog site. We are delighted you have chosen to participate in this exciting process of praying and fasting to discover God’s will for Holy Spirit Church’s outreach program.
As in all things, The Great Commission has a wider reach than we can imagine. We need to do the mundane things that we, as mortals, don't see going anywhere. Smile more, call people by thier names, share, don't fight; all the things we learned in kindergarden. We have to remember that our relationship with Jesus is a personal one, so be personal.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Mike that we need to be personal where we can. We are called to share Jesus not a program - and that becomes very personal.
ReplyDeleteHowever Acts 1:8 calls us to share Jesus in ever widening circles. It will be more difficult for me to share Jesus personally "to the ends of the earth".
I would like for Holy Spirit Church to support a single type/area of outreach for the near term - could be prisoners, children, hunger, adequate housing, etc. But choose one type/area that we could personally be involved in on a local and perhaps regional level. Then we could also send funds to ministries that share Jesus and the Gospel in this same type/area of outreach in far away places.
