Creative Compassion part 1

Posted by Matt On September - 29 - 2010

I’ll soon share at the Momentum 2010 National Youth Worker’s Conference on the idea of “creative compassion.” I’m excited.

Painting walls can be creative compassion...

Painting walls can be creative compassion...

It’s been fun to see students helping others by serving in soup kitchens, cleaning a neighborhood, painting (legal) murals in downtown areas, using their talents to raise funds for organizations, doing a CONVOY OF HOPE and more…

What are some fun/creative ways you’ve seen students show compassion? List them here or via facebook/twitter (facebook.com/mattwilkie, twitter.com/mattwilkie). I’d love to hear your thoughts…I’ll do a follow-up post with the ideas I’ve encountered.

Many thanks! If you’re at the conference, I hope to see you in Dallas in Austin 4-6 at 11:30 a.m. on Friday.
