Here\u2019s an ever-evolving list of things you can do to help&nbsp;out:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> Come and prayerwalk the campus. Not familiar with prayerwalking? <a href=\"http:\/\/www.waymakers.org\/prayerwalking.html\">Learn more about it<\/a>!\n<\/li>\n<li> Serve as a mentor for a Stanford student. We\u2019re especially eager to find Stanford alumni willing to develop a purposeful relationship with a student.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li> Act as a host family for a student. Let them come do laundry at your house, feed them home cooked meals every once in a while, and take them shopping once a month or&nbsp;so.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li> Do their homework for them (just kidding).&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li> Provide rides to church.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li> Come utilize a ministry gift at our weekly worship service (Wednesday nights at 8pm). We\u2019ve already got a worship leader and a speaker, but tell us what you\u2019re interested in and we\u2019ll&nbsp;see.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li> Volunteer your expertise with creating compelling dual-encoded HTML\/AOL\/text emails.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li> Volunteer your web expertise and help us make our sites (<a href=\"http:\/\/xastanford.org\/\">xastanford.org<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/glenandpaula.com\/\">glenandpaula.com<\/a>) better.\n<\/li>\n<li> Help us fold and stamp our print newsletters once a month. We send out about 500, and our fingers sure get&nbsp;sore!&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li> Send Glen useful links, articles, and book recommendations to assist in his sermon preparation.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li> Introduce us to Stanford alumni that you know (especially Christian ones).&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li> If you feel called, <a href=\"http:\/\/homemissions.ag.org\/homemissions\/chi_alpha\/ca_involved.cfm\">pursue appointment as a Campus Missionary Aide<\/a> through <a href=\"http:\/\/www.chialpha.com\/\">Chi Alpha Campus Ministries<\/a> and work with us part-time on campus.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you\u2019re interested in any of these opportunities, let us know. We\u2019ll interview you and talk to you about expectations (both our expectations of you and your expectations of&nbsp;us).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>practical things you can do to help us in our ministry<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"wp_typography_post_enhancements_disabled":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-113","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-3-involvement-working"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p6Ded-1P","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/glenandpaula.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/113","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/glenandpaula.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/glenandpaula.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/glenandpaula.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/glenandpaula.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=113"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/glenandpaula.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/113\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1527,"href":"https:\/\/glenandpaula.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/113\/revisions\/1527"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/glenandpaula.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=113"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/glenandpaula.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=113"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/glenandpaula.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=113"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
