Best part about Christmas and Christmas Eve? All the people we got to meet and we got to deliver food to help them too! Our trunk was loaded with 12 bags filled with smoked ham, dinner rolls, corn etc. and pies - We got all this food from extra vouchers we were given from our neighboring ward - Tonga
My favorite delivery - we were pulling out of a parking lot and we stopped at the stop sign to see a guy walking by. I rolled down my window and asked if he wanted a bag of Christmas food. He said, "Sure I mean I have a job I work but I'll take it." So we got out of the car and as we handed him the bag and the pamphlet he explained how he has one little girl and a place to stay, but that he can't afford presents, or much food and how excited his little girl was gonna be about this surprise food they wouldn't have had for Christmas. We shared our testimonies with him and off he walked but it made me so happy thinking of how simple an act of service can change someone's day.
