Simple steps for joining God at work in your neighborhood

Sharing the gospel can be intimidating. It can be hard to introduce yourself to someone—or know what to say or do once you meet someone new. But Resonate is confident that God works powerfully through friendships. Here are a few ideas from your Resonate regional mission leaders in Canada and the United States to help you join God where he’s working.

  • Go on regular prayer walks in your neighborhood and pray for individual households.
  • Volunteer with a local nonprofit organization.
  • Host a casual gathering for your neighbors. Provide something affordable and simple such as a veggie tray, doughnuts, coffee, or lemonade. Make sure to keep it safe and follow COVID-19 guidelines.
  • Offer to pray for your neighbors.
  • Host a front yard prayer meeting.
  • Set up a prayer box outside the front of your house.
  • Write encouraging chalk messages at night so it surprises people in the morning
  • Clean up trash from streets and parks
  • Attend local neighborhood association meetings
  • Be a “regular” somewhere in your community—a park, a coffee shop, the library, or somewhere else.
  • Shovel your neighbors’ sidewalk, rake your neighbors’ leaves, mow your neighbors’ lawn
  • Prepare three questions to bring conversations with your neighbors past “hello.”
  • Start a podcast or a blog to share your thoughts and encourage others.
  • Invite neighbors to run or walk with you at a set time each week.
