How can we care for people?

• Open a/partner with local food pantries to help provide basic needs.  
• Be uncompromising in our gospel witness.  
• Consider teaching essential work skills and offering counseling services to individuals.  
• Establish clear guidelines to determine how your church can effectively meet the needs of its members.  
• Partner with other churches in meeting needs.  
• Acknowledge that we may be taken advantage of by some people, but our obedience is not bound by another’s response.  
• Don’t grow weary in doing good.
