Hello Friends and Family! I hope everyone had a great week.
Monday at Interfaith I put in all the volunteer hours into
our database, let me tell ya there are a lot of volunteers and this took me the
entire day, but I definitely felt accomplished when I was done.
Today (Friday) I got to go to a NCPC (North County Philanthropy
Council) Volunteer Award luncheon. This sweet family that has been volunteering
at interfaith for around 12 years working in the Soup Kitchen received the
award. There were probably about 98 different organizations that gave out
awards. It was such a cool event to go to and you just feel so good leaving the
luncheon knowing how many people are doing so much good in the community.
Tuesday at Habitat for Humanity I helped build a shed. It
was awesome I helped with some framing, put up the plywood, built some shelves
and started on the door!
Wednesday I may or may not have spent the day at the 2nd
happiest place on earth, but don't worry because I spent Thursday at the #1
Happiest Place on Earth! :)
I have loved taking part in The prophets challenge that he
gave to all the women at General Conference to read the Book of Mormon by the
end of the year and mark verses about Jesus Christ. While doing this I came
upon Alma 5:61 which talks about how Christ is our Shepherd, and we are His
Sheep. As we listen to His guidance through the Holy Ghost, He will always
protect us... from any ravenous wolf. I encourage you all to go back through
your notes or through talks from this past general conference to remind
yourself what you can be doing to follow the prophets council!
