Because we are so much stronger when we are many
than when we are alone, the name of our humanitarian effort in the Sherwood
Hills Ward reflects the important truth that "little drops of water,
little grains of sand, make the mighty ocean and the beauteous
land." We want to visualize this truth over the next six
months as we ask each of you to drop one "little drop" into our big
glass bowl each time you spend an hour in humanitarian service. Over the
next six months, from March to September, we would like to fill our bowl with
your acts of kindness. This bowl will be found on Fast Sunday each month outside the
Relief Society room, and each one of you can put as many "drops of
water" in the bowl as hours you have spent that month in humanitarian
service. We would also challenge you to reach out to those you visit
teach and those who visit teach you to help you in this effort. We would
love to hear reports of how you strengthen and support each other in this
service.
I will regularly update this blog with accounts
of what is happening in the Sherwood Hills ward and with ideas that I find of
other ways we can serve in our community and in our world.
What a great idea, Anna! I will watch with interest as I am to head a mission wide public affairs effort for our missionaries! You are certainly magnifying your calling!
