LOCAL SERVICE PROJECT IDEAS

"Servant" or "Kindness" evangelism is demonstrating the kindness of God by offering to do some act of humble service with no strings attached.

The ideas mentioned here are practical ways of showing God's love to all people, free of charge.  These are just a few of many found in the book Conspiracy of Kindness by Steve Sjogren (Servant Publications, 1993, ISBN 0-892383-832-9).
