How-To's
Sometimes "How" is all that stands between us and life-changing service. To help move each of us from being "willing and able" to being "doing and able" we have compiled a series of How-To's.
You can use How-To's as inspiration and education for your own unique service project or ministry. Or, you can use a complete How-To as a blueprint for a project. These projects can be tackled by yourself, but often these types or projects are most fruitful when you can form a team — in your church, your work place, your community. Check out the examples of How-To projects and learn from people, groups and churches that have served in the same areas you're interested in. On these pages you can watch videos of ordinary people doing extraordinary things. You'll also find a downloadable guide to setting up a similar ministry.
We're looking for new How-To's so please submit your ideas here.
