Service

Hey folks!
I have a question to present to you, the noble readers of Tim's blog. Knowing Tim as I do, I assume the people he associates with in Canada are as thoughtful as his friends in Michigan. I find myself the president of a Bible Club on campus here, and one of the things we need to do is have a service event. I'm not satisfied with a run-of-the-mill, every day, it's-been-done event. I would love to incorporate ideas of social and distributive justice. The issue at hand, is that I don't know how to do this. If anyone has a new idea for service, or has done something that is less usual, please let me know! For your information, we are in a suburb of Denver, Colorado within 15 minutes of downtown. Thanks.
Mary

What about helping people, who may not know how, to regester to vote and helping them fill out the forms for absentee ballets if they can't get out?
Arranging for them to get to the poles to vote?
Finding out how the homless can regester to vote and helping them? They may find it new that people classify them as a part of the American citizenship.
It could build some bridges and be the take off point for a ministry. ?

Thanks, Di. Good idea. I'll talk with the leader of the homeless ministry here on campus and see if they've considered that yet, and how I could possible set that up with the Bible Thumpers. Thanks!
