Serving others is something Jesus did with humility. It is something he told his disciples to do as well. (e.g. John 13:1-20). Serving locally in our community is a place to start. A couple of local ministries in communities I am familiar with are the SonShine Center in Madisonville, Texas and the Lighthouse in Eagle Lake, Texas. The SonShine Center is a place where donated clothing, furniture, and household items are resold and food is distributed. The Lighthouse is an after school ministry with at risk kids. Both ministries are for the most part run by volunteers. These volunteers are being the hands and feet of Jesus in their communities.
Both ministries started with a vision and a call from the Lord. They started small. The Lord has blessed both ministries.
Do you have a vision and call from the Lord for a local ministry start up? Or are you already helping in a local ministry?
