Serving One Another

The Holy Spirit through Paul instructs us to "serve one another humbly in love." This can sometimes seem awkward, both to offer and to receive acts of service from others, yet this is a significant part of being a member of the family of God.

Vacation Care

Routine home care can be a pain to cover when someone goes out of town on any kind of trip. When you know someone from your group will be out of town, offer to do things like get their mail, mow their yard, take care of their pets, set their trash out, etc. These small tasks can communicate care and love in simple ways.

Meal Train

A meal train is a crowdsourced way to care for someone in a time of need. Whether someone just experienced a birth or death in the family, a surgery, an illness, or is simply going through a rough time, the meal train tool above allows someone to organize a series of meals to be cooked and delivered by a group of people (your Venture Group is the perfect size).

Home Projects

Never do a home improvement project alone (or let someone from your group do a project alone). From painting, to fixing leaks, to laying flooring, to winterizing your house and doing spring garden maintenance, each unskilled or semi-skilled job is an opportunity to serve and tighten friendship bonds over shared labor.

Babysitting

Whether group members need help taking care of children, grandchildren, foster care placements, fur babies, or even aging parents, everyone needs respite from their caretaking duties from time to time. Give the gift of rest and peace of mind through your service to members of your group in this way.
