We’ve been blessed with much, so we have much to be thankful for. Gratitude is more than an attitude—it is also an action. One of the ways our attitude of thankfulness becomes an action is by blessing others. 

I stopped by Care Net in Rockland a couple of weeks ago and asked the director what things people can be involved in and help with. Carol Green sent me a list of tangible things as well as ministry opportunities that you could do to bless others. If you're looking for a way to be used, there are many opportunities of service for both men and women. Much of the tangible things such as repairs or donations the men can be involved with. Note especially the volunteer services toward the end. I'll post what she sent below:
