Christmas Eve morning -LeeAnn invited us to join her and her ward Young Women to assemble 100 maternity kits. The YW will deliver about 20 kits each week to the Maternidad Hospital. Sister Beathy's daughter furnished the bags, tee shirt and diapers. A Sister from LeeAnn's ward made 100 receiving blankets, and another Sister in here ward, who is blind, knit 100 hats for the kits. Not a YW showed up but there was two return missionaries and two of the friends that were so excited about helping us. Karin. YW President and Jasmine from the ward also assisted us.
Giving service is the greatest gift that an individual can do. Service requires very little of our time. Let your eyes, heart and mind find the acts of kindness that surrounds us hourly and daily and act upon those inclinations.
Elder Johnson felt the worker's needed a car for their efforts this morning. They were so excited to receive one of our cars. These small cars have brought so many smiles and surprise from the recipients.
What a great Christmas Eve project!
