"When ye are in the service of your fellow beings.....Ye are only in the Service of your God."
Last night was incredible! For our Combined YM/YW activity, we had planned to go ice blocking over at the High School. We got word that a family in our ward was in need of some help with their yard, due to the Mom having a broken foot. The decision was made to take all of the youth to their home and provide some service and help where they could. It was awesome to see that not one of them complained at the canceled activity swapped for service! Our youth are amazing.....truly! Everyone pitched in and got the job done in just about an hour! The yard was so full of weeds, and looked beautiful by the time we left! The family was so grateful for the help and the kids learned how good it feels to serve! A few of them even commented about how good it felt and how much they love to serve!......and it helped that there were ice cream sandwiches to finish off the night!
