From sending care packages to those serving overseas, to shoveling the neighbor's walk, to paying for a stranger's meal, there are many things you can do every day to make a positive impact and reach out in Christian service.

Here are some simple ways to serve:

  • Mail to Cards for Hospitalized Kids, which delivers the cards to children in US hospitals.*
  • Teach a class on a subject you know.
  • Send a care package to members of the military through Operation Gratitude.*
  • Write a letter to the great people in your life.  Let them know what they mean to you and how they've impacted you.
  • Donate unneeded items to charity.
  • Coach a youth sports team.
  • Offer a ride to Mass.
  • Give compliments.
  • Forgive others.
  • Set goals and create a plan for success.*
