Kindness Ministry ideas!

I'll bet you're asking, what is kindness ministry? Well, I mainly derived this list from Steve Sjogren's book 'Conspiracy of Kindness' - check his website for more ideas https://www.stevesjogren.com/94-servant-evangelism-ideas-for-your-church/. The book is a great read and shares how powerful planned acts of kindness in his community were influential in growing various churches he lead. The objective is really being and showing love to those around you with no strings attached. Here is a brief list of ways you can do that - let me know if you have anything to add; some of this will be in the Weekly Growing with God Opportunity listed on the home page.
