Seven Ways to put a little PASSION in your Week of ComPASSION

(1) Observe "Blanket Sunday" ( it’s a great way
to honor moms on Mother’s Day)

(2) Prepare CWS “Gifts of the Heart” Kits. There is always an urgent need especially for health and school kits.

(3) Put together a Disciples/WOC/IMA Medicine Box. One box will serve 1000 people for 23 months.

(4) Resettle a refugee family. You can’t resettle all uprooted and displaced families in the world, but you can resettle one. (www.weekofcompassion.org/pages/partners/rimdhm.html)

(5) Plan a mission trip — in North America or abroad. (Don’t forget to apply for a WOC partner grant)

(6) Encourage your youth to host a Souper Bowl of Caring and use a portion of their receipts to help WOC feed hungry people in the world. (www.souperbowl.org)

(7) Sponsor a Foods Resource Bank Growing Project — a great way to help people feed themselves.
