Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, "I am the light of the world. If you follow Me, you won't have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life.” -John 8:12
The Bible tells us that Jesus is the “light of the world” and that all who follow Him will not have to live in darkness. For this reason, each Sunday will focus on the theme of the "light of the world" through the Bible message, personal experiences, and anecdotes. As a church, we also want to be a light to the world through sharing Jesus' love in extraordinary and unexpected ways. This Christmas, let's take the opportunity to be the light in the world around us
Let's do extraordinary acts of kindness for those around us this Christmas! Each week, we encourage you to take your rGroup and bless someone with incredible love. Be a light in the world with your rGroup!
Random Acts of Kindness Ideas:
- Create Christmas baskets and deliver to three neighbors (left, right, and directly across from you); include invitation to Church/Christmas services
- Reverse Drive Through: Instead of placing an order, wish the worker a Merry Christmas and give them a small gift which includes an invitation to Church / Christmas services
- Reverse Grocery Shopping: When checking out at a store, give the checker a small gift and an invitation to Church / Christmas services
- Go to a homeless shelter and/or rehab program: Sing Christmas carols, bring cookies and other treats, then share the message of hope
- Visit a Senior Center: Sing carols, sit with residents, and hear their stories
