Lynn Coleman decided she wanted to do more for God’s Kingdom in her Louisa community. When her neighbor lost everything to a house fire, she was ready to step in to help, but she realized she did not know her neighbor well enough.

About that same time, the SBC of Virginia hosted a Bless Every Home forum that Pastor Todd Lewis attended. This resource prompts subscribers to pray by name, care with acts of service, share the Gospel, and disciple relationships for Christ to surrounding neighbors. Pastor Lewis knew this would be a good fit for his New Life Community Church in Louisa.

After learning about Bless Every Home through Pastor Lewis’s sermon series, Coleman felt equipped to be the neighbor God intends each of us to be. Now, she prays for her neighbors. God is providing opportunities to serve and share the Gospel of Jesus Christ. And the neighbor who lost her home attends Sunday services and Bible studies with Coleman.
