Ideas for being a Good Neighbor
Prayer is our first response. Spend time praying and asking God to open your eyes to see the need and respond.
In Your Neighborhood
In Your Neighborhood
- Meet New Neighbors: Introduce yourself to someone you haven’t met yet. Bonus points if you bring a batch of cookies!
- Pray: When you see a way to respond with prayer, ask your neighbor if you can pray with them for a specific need.
- Practical acts of kindness: Feed the neighbor kids lunch when you prepare lunch for your kids, bring in their trash cans, mow their lawn, or bring them a coffee.
- Share: Do what Jesus did by sharing your faith with someone.
At Your Workplace or School
