This is an idea that I had that I think we will try next year. Something that you could do for Veterans Day is to find some local Veterans. Have the church members make cards and write letters for them. Then have some church members make them dinner and deliver the letters and cards. This is a great way to let them know that you are thinking about them and to share God's love.
You could also contact your local Veterans Hospital if there is one in your area. You could find out some things that you are allowed to take to Veterans and have church members bring them in. You could also have people make letters and cards to go with the items. Have some members take the items to the Hospital and give them to the Veterans. This lets them know that someone cares and shows them God's love. Plant the seed of love and bring others to Christ.
You could also hold a dinner for Veterans and reach out that way. As always, you could adopt a deployed service member and share God's love that way. My adopted members of the military get lots of art and other things from my church kids. They know where it is coming from and are appreciative. I am showing them God's love just by sending them things from the church.
