Hot Dish & Hope turned 1 year old on July 8. Wil Courter spent six weeks learning more about this ministry. Read his report here.
As part of his study, Wil got to know many of our Hot Dish & Hope guests. He shares some of what he learned here.
The key to meaningful, fun and effective outreach is combining what needs to be done with people who really want to do it. With that in mind, we strive to provide a diversity of opportunities. If you don’t see anything here that interests you, then please contact me and let me know what you are interested in or what you think you might be interested in. Outside of what we have listed at right, there is a whole world of needs looking for people drawn to them.
Some of our needs are one-time -- such as showing up before Thanksgiving to package turkey dinners. But if you are looking for an ongoing outreach service, my advice is don’t be afraid to try something new, and if you don’t like it, keep looking until you find something that you really like. And please don’t ever feel guilty for not liking an outreach project.
But as they say, you never know for sure unless you try it first.
