Project Ideas
Life-change can begin with one simple idea and a random act of kindness. Begin by answering these questions: Who in your neighborhood has a need? What business or organization within your sphere of influence could use a blessing? What project types best suit your group’s ages and abilities? (prayer, worship, teaching, physical labor, etc.)
