November Hearts and Hands Update

Have I Done Any Good?

Have I helped anyone in need? Have I cheered up the sad or made someone feel glad? Has anyone’s burden been lighter today because I was willing to share? Have the sick and weary been helped on their way?
When they needed my help, was I there?

We encourage each sister to take a moment in each month to find a way to serve one other sister (or more!) in the ward. This compassionate service activity is known as our "Hearts and Hands" program. It reflects the love and friendship we share with each other, as well as the care and concern we have for each other. In November, the theme is: GIVING THANKS. Think of all the wonderful ways we can show one another how grateful we are for them: handwritten notes, saying “thank you,” doing your genealogy, surprising someone at work, sharing a thought from your journal, baking a favorite treat, offering service, calling your friend on the telephone. The list goes on!



If you have a great experience you’d like to share with the Relief Society, please do! This can be an experience as a giver or as a receiver. Email Deanne Welch, deannekwelch@hotmail.com with details to post on the blog. All entries will be kept anonymous.
