Serving as a Family through Community Service
Bethany Busy Bee is partnering with other agencies to provide various opportunities for families to serve, invest, or volunteer with them. Research suggests that involvement in these activities builds awareness and compassion for others, decreasing depression and increasing a sense of fulfillment through meaning and purpose.
- In mid-September, parents sign up to bring a meal to show our thanks to the Firemen and Policemen that will come by to give the kids a presentation in late September/early October.
- In December, we review the Bible story of “Jesus feeding the 5000” and create emergency kits for families to share with homeless/people in need. Bring your donations to the collection bin at the foyer.
- In February, we have the students create Valentines to encourage Nursing Home Residents to bring them cheer and God’s love.
- In March, children will make an Act of Kindness gift bag with a special item and hand them out to someone they choose to brighten their day with their Act of Kindness. Families may add to the bag to personalize the bag for the person the child chooses to give it to (grandma, neighbor, a cousin, a friend, etc.).
Please remember that all events held at Busy Bee are an opportunity to participate, it is never an obligation simply an invitation!
