My first year I wasn't as involved as I hoped for. I was able to be on the front line of inviting others to light the world on my mission. As missionaries, we had a little calendar that we strategically added to our planners. I would write the scripture on the mirror everyday for my companions. I was very involved!
This year, the Church of Jesus Christ has invited us for four weeks to light the world in different, but specific ways.
Week 1: Light the World-Focus on how to serve globally
Week 2: Light your Community-Find ways to help and serve in your community
Week 3: Light your Family-Show love to those closest to you
Week 4: Light your Faith-Increase your faith in Jesus Christ
I am so excited for one of the ways to serve. Last year, vending machines were placed in popular locations. People were able to purchase items for those in need. They will be having one at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. I hope I can do it!
I am definitely going to take on this opportunity to Light the World! It will be different especially since I work with members of the church and only see members of the church. But this will help me reach out and stand out! There are blessings for taking the time to serve. And this isn't limited for 25 days, but we can Light the World 365 days. Be a light!
