Building a strong community involves coming together through service and good works. As one body, we are called to love and serve others, letting our light shine for the glory of our Father in heaven (Matthew 5:16).
What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that? So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. – James 2:14-17
Let’s consider how we can stir up love and good works among us (Hebrews 10:24).
Within Your Gates is our initiative to inspire good works by providing grants for service projects led by members of the Church of God. Whether you’re a member or a minister, we encourage projects benefiting Church brethren or the local community.
Projects may include:
- Assisting in natural disaster recovery
- Participating in a search for a missing person
- Leading home repairs for a widow or someone with an illness
- Aiding in recovery from a criminal act
