In the Life of a College Student... (by Anna Isle)

 

I made my roommate Abby's bed for her and cleaned up some stuff on her side of the room while she was out of town.

I did the dishes for all the girls in my apartment.

Organized the silverware drawer to make it easier for everyone. 

Took out all the trash from the apartment. 

I did Abby's laundry while she was out of town. 

I opened the door for someone at the bank. 

I organized my and my roommates vanity mirror area. 

Did my friend Ashley's hair for her. 

Let Abby use my straightener until her parents sent her hers. 

I have let my roommates use my printer for school work. 

I let Abby use a shirt for her to use on her first day of work since she had no clean clothes

When Abby ran out of shampoo I let her use mine until she could go to the store and get her own. 

I attempted to donate blood but I didn't weigh enough (not sure if that counts)  :)

Friendship Bracelets! (by McKensie Oliver)

(Bracelets shown are just from a Google image)  :)

McKensie Oliver has been making friendship bracelets to donate to a place "where kids need something to cheer them up."  (What a great idea!)  She said, "I want to make some little kid's day much better."  :)  She has made 25 bracelets so far and will make 100 by the end of this challenge.  (Keep up the great work!!!)

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!
