October: Remember: Service

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

"Service is an important characteristic of a disciple of Jesus Christ.  As you devote yourself to serving others, you will draw closer to Heavenly Father.  You will be filled with love.  You will learn that service and sacrifice are always ways to overcome selfishness. You will enjoy happiness that comes only from giving service God and others.  You capacities will increase, and you will be an instrument in God's hands to bless the lives of his children" (For the Strength of Youth Pamphlet).
