"By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” - John 13:35
As Jesus' followers, we are called to love our neighbors. We know that His love is powerful, life-changing, and transformational.
During the month of February, we are challenging YOU to put love into action!
What could God do through simple acts of love and kindness if we all focused on loving our neighbors the first week in February? What kind of transformations could we see in our community?
And who are our neighbors? Here are some ideas that we came up with to get you started:
Your family
Your physical neighbors (think on all sides of your home, including above or below if you live in an apartment complex)
Your educators and school staff
Your healthcare workers
Your city's Civil Servants
The homeless
Each of the first 7 days in February, we will be sharing ideas on how you can show love to each of these groups. Make sure you're following us!
If you post any photos of you putting love into action, use the hashtags #SalemOrange #LoveOurCommunity #GoShareGodsLove, or send your photos to cwoody@salemorange.com to have them featured on our Social Media accounts so that we can hopefully inspire others to do the same!
Start brainstorming right now. Would cards or encouraging notes be meaningful? How about taking action by serving in some way or putting together a special treat out of gratitude?
We can't wait to see how Jesus works through each one of you to transform our community in February!
