Sermon notes

This teaching frames neighborhood presence as a slow, faithful practice rather than a seasonal campaign.

Key practices

  • Love of neighbor starts with attention.
  • Proximity exposes needs a program can miss.
  • Faithfulness is often measurable in returned calls and remembered names.
