Week 44---October 2, 2017---FINALLY & ON SERVICE

Finally
We got a chance to head out to a pueblo that was more damaged in the earthquakes, and we were able to spend a day there helping transport bricks for the fallen homes in that area. We were all super happy to finally get the opportunity to help in a physical way here in the city. 

On Service
One of the end purposes for what we teach and learn from Jesus Christ is to love those around you. Love without action is not love. We can get caught up in lavish statements, posts, and videos, etc. that preach love, but until we actually do something for someone else, we have not loved anyone. Many of us are comfortable in saying we love others, but have yet to love another person other than ourselves with our actions. We will dedicate large portions of time, building our image, wealth, skills, etc. but rarely dedicate time to help anyone else. It is not easy, but it is a worthwhile pursuit to truly love others. Our world needs love more than anything.
