Soap!

Today I ended up having to wake up at 5:30 in the morning to go volunteer at the Deserets Soap factory. My father is the Bishop so he asked my mom and I if we could help out at the factory since he didn't have enough Volunteers. I didn't like having to wake up early but I agreed since it could be good practice for when I'm on my Mission.

I had asked my best friend if she would like to tag along and she agreed, well we arrived at the Soap factory. Lets just say we had lots of fun (we didn't fool around of course haha). I was happy I got to help out even if it was just a few hours.  

Sadly we weren't allowed to take our phones in so I wasn't able to take any pictures inside but we did get free soap for helping out! 

It was a nice feeling to be able to help and serve those who needed our help the most, even though It may have just been soap to Heavenly Father it means so much that we were all so willing to spare a few hours of our day to help his children who are in need. 


Mosiah 2:17  
17 And behold, I tell you these things that ye may learn awisdom; that ye may learn that when ye are in the bservice of your cfellow beings ye are only in the service of your God.

Just like this scripture states when we do service to others it's just like as if we are serving God directly because we are his most precious children who he loves with all his heart, mind and soul. He wants us to serve and love one another. 

I'm so grateful to be a member of such a loving church, the people may not be perfect but we all strive to be more Christ like. I'm proud to serve a mission so I can  help families know the truth so they to may strive to be more Christ like.
