President's Day Service Project



I am lucky to now be more exposed to more service projects in my calling as young women's president and encourage the youth to help our fellow man. I was really impressed by our youth. I thought for sure no hands would go up....when I asked for assistance. Instead, about 90% of the Young Women raised their hands high and said they would be available. I brought almost an instant tear to my eye. I thought for sure it was their day off of school, which means they could sleep in, be lazy, etc.

I drove up and was more impressed to find families and their little toddlers pulling weeds. Brinely joined the group and started raking one handed since she has a cast on the other hand. The Kunze's in our ward....were so overwhelmed by the response of help. Phaedra's yard work was getting to be overwhelming for her, so it was great for us to show up and take care of it.

So glad to be part of this great church, where we have the opportunity to serve one another, and feel the blessings of service!!!!!
