Community Service: Joy or Burden?
Serving others in our community and our world and recognizing the face of Christ in each person we serve is answering Jesus’ call to serve “the least of our brothers”. Serving others can bring us great joy…but sometimes when we feel helpless, like we can’t do enough to help, or when we try to make time for it in our already overstressed and busy life it can be seen as a burden. So how can sharing in another’s suffering bring us to a deeper and more profound sense of joy?
