This summer, you may have plans to play, relax, and reconnect with family! Summertime can also be a great opportunity to serve others in our community!
Each Thursday in June and July, my 18-year-old, Emma Grace, will share ideas on how your kids can serve others. Listen on Thursdays at 8:15 a.m. for a new challenge to conquer! We can’t wait to hear how it goes! Let’s make memories and serve others together this summer!

Week One: Serve with Your Stuff
My idea this week is to serve with your stuff. Let me explain. Decluttering! Summer can be a great time to go through your closet, through your bookshelves, taking out what you don’t need anymore and giving to others! It can feel good to get rid of that stuff but also bless others with it. There are many organizations in our community that could use your donation. You could also check with your church. Or, you might even have a friend who could benefit from it.
Week Two: Serve with Your Passion
Summer break is a great time to play, relax, and even reconnect with others. It’s also a great opportunity to serve others in our community. My idea this week is to serve with your passion. My sister and I both love playing volleyball. We play for our school and for a club team. This week we have a volleyball camp but before our session, we’re serving the younger students, helping them with their camp. It’s been nice to encourage the younger players in a sport that I love so much. The challenge this week is to find a way to share your own passions and skills with others this summer, making a positive impact while doing what you love.
Week Three: Serve with Your Church
Our churches are always looking for help in different areas. It could be the nursery, the welcome team, or even the music or AV team. Volunteering can be a great way to meet new friends and connect with others in your church. It also helps fill an important need. This time of year, so many churches especially need help with VBS so that could be a great place to start!
