Hospitality

Updated: Feb 23

Hospitality is a vital expression of Christian love and community. Opening our homes and hearts to others allows us to share God’s love practically, building relationships and fostering unity. Romans 12:13 (ESV) encourages us to “Contribute to the needs of the saints and seek to show hospitality.” This verse highlights hospitality as an essential part of living out our faith.


Welcoming others not only blesses them but also enriches our walk with God. When we serve with a generous spirit, we reflect Christ’s love and compassion. It helps us grow in empathy, patience, and kindness, deepening our connection with God and others. These acts of kindness strengthen our faith and build a supportive community.


Hospitality also opens the door for meaningful conversations about faith, life, and God’s goodness. It creates a space where people can feel valued and cared for, making it a powerful tool for spreading the Gospel.
