… for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me. … Truly I tell you this, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.
Matthew 25:35-37, 40
Ministry is not something just for the clergy. It is the work of all of us – the people of God. We all gather together Sunday mornings, but we also do the work of the church independently or in smaller groups during the week. We do these things because there we find joy, meaning, and fellowship in following Jesus’ words and example. The opportunities are many: usher during the service, welcome visitors, organize a fundraiser, support our refugee resettlement team, and more. Our participation in these activities is an important part of living our faith and growing in our relationship with God.
