December 15, 2014

Want to give a great Christmas Present to the Savior? - let's start with 12 days of simple service starting the 20th of December (you can switch the daily assignments if you want or start earlier. Some will be harder than others depending on where you live)

Members of the Church:

Today - watch & share "He Is The Gift!" (christmas.mormon.org or natal.mormon.org)
20. invite friend / less active member to church / church activity
21. ask the missionaries what you can do to help them this week (also don't let them go without presents for Christmas
22. find a way to share with someone the true meaning of Christmas (e.g., Christmas caroling - which they do not have in Brazil, internet posts, speak with someone, etc.)
23. It's Joseph Smith's birthday!  Speak with someone about the importance of the Book of Mormon and give them a Book of Mormon with your testimony written in it. (explain what the Book of Mormon is, how it is the keystone of our religion, and how they can know it is true)
24. read the Christmas story and think about the attributes of Christ (write them down)
25. It's Christmas! find a way to honor your father and mother
26. share a part of the plan of Salvation with someone
27. do a random act of service 
28. give the missionaries a referral (in your own ward, temple square, internet)
29. find a way to put a smile on someone's face
30. Evaluate your year - spiritually, mentally, physically (What did you do good?  What could you have done better?)
31. Establish goals with specific plans for the year 2015 (don't forget goals to advance the work of the Lord)
