It's a Matter of Service.....in the Vineyard.....


"By small and simple things are great things  brought to pass." Alma 37:6

I once was asked to present a class on service opportunities in our area.  I spent hours locating and compiling information to share with our Relief Society about things they could do to help our community.  I was pleased to see that some needed services required hands on tasks all the way down to doing an on-line task within 15 minutes. I loved the idea of a task that could be done on-line as I am nearly always within range of a computer...but not always near a physical site that might need my help on any given day.

Well, I thought about that class when I came across a new site called Helping in the Vineyard.    It is an opportunity that allows any individual who would like to participate in service opportunities to join together for a common cause. Here is a direct quote:

This Web site establishes a worldwide community as a resource for completing large amounts of work in a short period of time. Much of this work is completed online with potentially thousands of people working on a single project together at the same time.

What a great idea.  Please consider joining together in various projects such as:

  • Prepare Church content to share with the world
  • Prepare Church multimedia to share with the world
  • Translation
  • Family History
You can find these service opportunities at http://vineyard.lds.org/
