IMPACT
Put your faith to work.
We carry our faith into the world by serving people and building relationships, and we put what we believe into practice at home, at work, and in everyday life.
WAYS TO RESPOND
Start where you are.
Faith grows when it moves. Here is this week’s anchor, and two simple ways to answer it.
This Week’s Anchor
Healing: bring your heart to God.
“He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds.”
PSALM 147:3 · WEBBE
This week’s question: What would you like to bring honestly before God today?
Serve
Carry our faith into the world by serving people and building relationships. It starts with one neighbour, one hour, one open door.
Have a service or partnership idea for the community? We would love to hear it.
Read Along
Put what we believe into practice at home, at work, and in everyday life, together. The Daily Word, the teachings, and community news gather on Substack during the week.
