Reflection On Community Service

731 Words3 Pages

For community service, I have helped out with Sunday School and Vacation Bible at Trinity Lutheran Church in Hicksville, New York. I not only help out with my church, but I have helped out with Big/Little Sisters at my school. Also I helped out with three library events that helped our community this past summer.
I am involved at my church in helping with Sunday School at Trinity Lutheran in Hicksville, since I was in sixth grade. There I do many things for an hour. I help children learn the bible.

I also bring them to the restroom, distribute papers, and take attendance. At Vacation Bible School I help tell the parents if their child got hurt, hand out papers or hand the parents the students’ papers if they are carrying too much. This betters our community because if we are friendly, help people, and act kind, parents will be more likely to send their children to Sunday School or Vacation Bible School, and this helps the church to gain people to follow Jesus. Jesus doesn’t want us to force people however, it helps my church when we help and treat people with kindness, consequently getting one more person to come to church which makes God and Jesus
