One Christian can't make much of a difference.

Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can and as long as you can.~John Wesley

That's a tall order, and doing good doesn't even get you saved! But then again, saved people do good. Times are hard, and at no time since the Great Depression has there been a greater need for service, one person to another. The social safety net is strained to the breaking point and we need to act. 

One Christian can't make much of a difference you say? Should David have stayed home and avoided Goliath? Did Paul really make a difference on those missionary journeys? Get up out of your pews and  ask the person sitting next to you to go with you. Don't ask the pastor for permission, just go. Help one person today, see if they think you made a difference.
