Young Women's Service Scavenger Hunt

Tuesday night the Young Women in the Ward did a Scavenger Service Project.  We had a great turn out of young women and with four different car loads we were able to go to at least 8 different homes.  One group went to a single lady's (Kathy Dinkel) home while she was still at work and stacked firewood on her porch.  (The next day she texted Gary thinking it was the Young Men who "pixie dusted" her porch.  Gary told her not the Young Men but the Young Women).  She was greatly appreciative of the service.  Another car load went to the Evan's home and they have triplet toddlers girls.  She was surprised and they helped her fold laundry, do dishes, vacuum a floor and help get the girls into bed.  She was able to relax that night after getting the girls to bed.  Another car load helped three other homes and the fourth car load got to visit 3 more homes, each helping do little chores around the homes.
Then we all met back at the Church to tell of our services and had a treat. We all had a wonderful learning experience of service and giving of ourselves to others.
