Discussion Questions:

1. From your knowledge of Church history, has the Church always been involved in service to society and to the vulnerable in our world?
2. Where do the Gospels say that we should help our fellow human beings? Do other Church thinkers discuss this issue? 
3. Discuss the National Ladies Philoptochos Society, their work and how it displays faith in action. 
4. We see a number of agencies involved with service (such as IOCC, OCMC, FOCUS, YES and more); what are they and what do they do? How can an individual or parish become involved with them?
5. How can a parish or an individual become involved in service to the community, both inside and outside the parish?
