Last night I participated in the last of 5 Spark Group meetings. Spark Groups are simply weekly gatherings with friends, neighbors, co-workers, etc. and revolve around a desire to do something each week for 5 weeks that will make the world a better place.
People in our group reconnected with estranged family members, reached out to struggling friends and neighbors, and did a whole host of random acts of kindness that not only blessed the lives of those they helped, they found it to be very refreshing and fulfilling for their own lives. What an amazing concept! Actually, I don't think it's all that original. Some wise person once said, "Do to others that you would want them to do for you". Well, I guess that what we did and it felt great!
After the meeting I had the opportunity to meet the founder of Spark Good, Jason Jaggard. In his own words Spark Good was started because,
“We believe that human beings were designed to be extraordinary - that life was meant to be an exploration with others into discovering our God-given gifts and talents and unleashing them to serve whatever community we find ourselves in. Yet living an extraordinary life never happens on accident. It requires intentionality. It has to be chosen.”
Jason is very engaging and passionate about helping people move forward in who they were meant to become, “one small risk at a time.” We share this passion and for that reason I thought I’d introduce him to you.
If you want more information about Spark Groups, just go to www.SparkGood.com and there you will find all kinds of great resources.
