i think when we hear the word ministry, our minds (in general) often go to pastors, missionaries, etc etc etc. but ministry is about serving others and showing Jesus to them, and God can use any skill/talent/gift He has given us.

i know for a fact i don't make a good leader lol. but i love working in the back ground. tell me what you need, and i'll do my best to accomplish the task.

Just as humility is in the background of all really good works, so is a humble servant. Way to be...:)

Well, idk about me being humble lol

I do know I’m not good at being a leader because I was a youth leader a while back, and I was not good at it. I also know I don’t do well in children’s ministry, and I found that out when I helped with vacation bible school lol.

Music is my home.

My ministry is... the ministry of irritation.

Sometimes the urgency of my calling just overwhelms me.

I dabble in the lesser known, yet often practiced ministry of criticism. I help people to see that they can...and should be doing things better. A sort of crutch to help prop up the body of believers.

Oh, did I mention my ministry of sarcasm?

Well, usually it's a select full carrying the burden for all so in general, helpers are the church's greatest asset.

I used to donate to a medical center that treats children with cancer and other diseases. It is also a major cancer research center. It was my dream to work there one day, but that dream has died. I wish I could donate like I used to but money has been tight. One day I will donate again. I also used to donate to the Make A Wish Foundation and to the Starlight Children's Foundation. Both are dedicated to bringing joy to sick children, especially those that are terminally ill.
