The Arlington Stake Presidency has asked all leaders to register on justserve.org. If you know of service opportunities in our community please let me know and I will forward them on to Sister Thompson in the Stake. Encourage our cub scout leaders and Activity Day girls to find service opportunities on this website. What a a good way to become more like Christ. It is a good way to teach that He lives in us and through us. Service is the best way to as President Uchtdorf would say, to "Fill the World with Christ's Love."
"Jesus Christ, who knew perfectly how to give, set for us the pattern of giving. To those whose hearts are heavy with loneliness and sorrow, He brings compassion and comfort. To those whose bodies and minds are afflicted with illness and suffering, He brings love and healing. To those whose souls are burdened with sin, He offers hope, forgiveness, and redemption. If the Savior were among us today, we would find Him where He always was-ministering to the meek, the downcast, the humble, the distressed, and the poor in spirit."
I know that as we serve daily in our homes, callings, and the community that our hearts will become more like the Savior's. Even little children can fill this joy. They naturally love to give. Bring your children with you when you serve let them see and feel the pure love of Christ.
