Lift Off! 40 Days of Sacrifice - Day 13
Matthew 25:35
For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in;
Find a person or a team to coordinate volunteers from your church. If you’re a [church leader], given the diversity of your responsibilities, this outreach culture isn’t likely to get very far if it’s solely on you to recruit volunteers and connect them to ministry opportunities. You need a quarterback. You want someone who understands and embraces the vision to own responsibility for recruiting, training, and connecting those who step up. (tgc.org)
If this is something you're passion about, let a church leader/pastor know! Leaders are always looking for ministries--especially an outreach type--like this for the church. We'll help point you in the right direction, or work personally through an opportunity like this to inform, encourage, and point people toward this area of great need.
Pray for yourself. Maybe through this prayer campaign, God has been moving in you to start a ministry around support refugees. Or even an area of support that the church lacks. How would you begin to see if this is where God is leading you? Take a moment to pray for opportunities to open in the church as well as God moving more in the hearts of the people to create more outreach ministries that support refugees and others in need.
