Agree with Seeker (great post, by the way). For instance, this week one of my neighbors is out of town, and she asked me to feed and water her kitten. I'm a dog person, so cats are not my fave, but I'm doing it. I called another elderly neighbor last night to ask how she was doing, too. These are not great acts of service, but I don't like using telephones at all, so it was kind of an effort. I won't get any rewards, but it doesn't take much.

I don't volunteer for any jobs at my "place of worship" (trying to be generic here), but I show up most Sundays. I don't go to much effort to dress up, either (this place is pretty casual, so no big deal). I don't care to mix and mingle, so I pretty much hit the door afterwards. I was told once that even your presence, and nothing else, is a form of service. I get quite a lot out of it, too. Doing your job well is definitely a form of service and a demonstration of integrity, too.
