Community Projects: Action Together

When people gather to follow His Way, they take action together. These aren’t organized programs—they’re spontaneous acts of service, mercy, and love that emerge when believers come together.

“For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the middle of them.” - Matthew 18:20

What Happens When We Gather

When people who follow His Way come together, action naturally follows. You might:

Serve the Poor Together

“For I was hungry, and you gave me food to eat. I was thirsty, and you gave me drink. I was a stranger, and you took me in.” - Matthew 25:35

Ideas:

  • Bring food to a neighbor in need
  • Volunteer together at a soup kitchen
  • Collect supplies for those who are struggling
  • Visit someone who is sick or alone

How to Start

You don’t need an organization. You just need:

  1. Two or three people who follow His Way
  2. A willingness to act on the teachings
  3. A need to address - something you can do together

That’s it. Gather, identify a need, take action.

Ideas for Gathering

Regular Gatherings

  • Meet weekly to read and discuss the teachings
  • Share a meal together
  • Pray for each other and your community
  • Plan and take action together

One-Time Actions

  • Organize a day of service
  • Help a specific person in need
  • Collect and distribute supplies
  • Share His Way at an event

Ongoing Service

  • Adopt a regular service commitment
  • Check in on neighbors regularly
  • Support someone going through a hard time
  • Keep serving together

The Key Principles

Whatever you do together, remember:

  1. Keep Jesus’ teachings central - Action flows from the Foundation
  2. Don’t create bureaucracy - Keep it simple
  3. Focus on action - Don’t just meet to meet
  4. Share His Way - Let others know what you’re doing and why
  5. Stay humble - Don’t do it to be seen

“Be careful that you don’t do your charitable giving before men, to be seen by them, or else you have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.” - Matthew 6:1

Share Your Story

When you take action together, share what happened:

  • Post on social media
  • Tell others about your experience
  • Encourage others to do the same
  • Point people to 4qq.org

Your story can inspire others to follow His Way.
