Sacrifice Our Wants for Others’ Needs Sunday

Suggestions

• Pick up groceries for someone who can’t go to the store themselves
• If there is someone you know that is confined to a wheel chair offer to take them out on a day trip (maybe to a park or a walk along the boardwalk)
• Have a family member over for dinner especially those who don’t get out often
• Visit an elderly relative in a nursing home
• Take your elderly family member out on a day trip
• Spend the afternoon with your children doing something fun together
• Visit sick children in the hospital
• Mow a needy neighbor’s lawn
• Instead of spending your money on something you don’t necessarily need, donate it
• Offer to walk the neighbors dog if he or she is unable to
• Cook a meal for a sick friend
• Offer to pet sit for a someone if they are going away
• When you offer to help a person in their time of need, don’t say “If there is anything I can do, just call” because most of the time they will not call you. Instead follow up on your offer by contacting them personally to offer your assistance
• If possible, assist someone with any computer questions they may have
