Lesson Recap: June 24, 2018



Receiving the Gifts of Ministering


According to President Uchtdorf, "Every gift that is offered to us, especially one that comes from the heart, is an opportunity to build or strengthen a bond of love. When we are good and grateful receivers, we open a door to deepen our relationship with the giver of the gift." By allowing others to minister to us, we can grow closer as sisters in our Relief Society, and deepen relationship that move forward in true love and concern for one another. Ministering is truly done "one by one." This new program emphasizes Christ's true ministry, to love one another, to truly serve and love each other as sisters in Christ.

What are some of the obstacles that make us hesitate asking for help, or receiving help?
How can we be more gracious receivers of gifts?

We are on this earth to do the Lords work, and we can accomplish that work by not just serving one another, and giving a helping hand, but by truly getting to know one another and becoming true friends, and sisters in Zion.

We can't do everything we need to do in this life alone. Lets make a pact that we will be gracious receivers of gifts.
