We talked this past Sunday about being a saferous church. Here are a few of the posted ideas that centered around being a safe place for the community.
- When you have new people sitting beside [you] that you have not met, make them feel welcome.
- Invite the homeless over for dinner.
- [Focus community impact days on] a ministry
- Go to local homeless camps, get in the trenches, and work with the homeless until the camps are empty.
Do you like any of these? Are any of these safe or are they dangerous?
If yours wasn’t included or got misrepresented, speak up!
what are homeless camps
i can’t even visualize what that would entail. I saw some photos my friend took the other day, is that a homeless camp? how do i even start helping with that? and do they even want my help…
any ideas?
