Serving in Times of Need (Anonymous)


A woman in my ward was having a hard time getting a baby sitter and she needed to go to a really important meeting, so I stopped what I was doing so I could watch her child.


My mom got really sick and my dad was up in SLC in meetings. I was able to take care of her until my dad got home. My mom was sick [again] today (Sunday) so I made dinner for her. I loved being able to give her back some service to her because she has served me in so many ways through out my life.

The young women in 6th ward went around the ward and did service. We stopped at the Raab's house and weeded their backyard. After that sister raab came out with cookies and lemonade.

Blessings of Service (Sis. Stacy Goulding)

I had a wonderful time at camp, but I came home absolutely exhausted. I had hoped to spend the next week relaxing with my husband, instead I had several opportunities to serve. I fulfilled a ward canning assignment, babysat my neighbor's kids, served food at a wedding, and helped a ward member move. I felt a bit overwhelmed by it all, especially for being away from my husband more, but I was richly blessed. Out of the blue, I was offered a job I really wanted. It was an unexpected opportunity that will help further my career. It never ceases to amazing me how when we sacrifice and serve the Lord He's right there to bless us in return 10 fold. Not only that, but these opportunities to serve help us become the women the Lord wants us to be. I'm one blessed woman.

 
I love you all!

Biffy Bonus! (by 8th Ward Leaders)

The leaders of the 8th ward decided to start our service up at camp. We surprised the girls and cleaned the BIFFY's for them while they were at power hour. To be honest we had a little fun doing it. :]
