Our Lesson was given by Megan Webster today. It was Ch. 32 "Tithes and Offerings"
Some important points were made that I'd like to share with those that didn't get the chance to hear her great lesson.
*Paying tithing is a commandment
*Pay an honest and full tithe
*We show our faithfulness to the Lord and set an example for our children
*Willingly pay our tithing, with a joyful willing and cheerful attitude
Our tithes go to pay for temples, meeting houses, education materials, missionary program, family history and temple work. Fast offerings go to help the needy with food, shelter, clothing and medical care. Other donations go to the perpetual education fund, service projects and humanitarian aide, just to name a few.
Several sisters shared their testimony and stories of how paying their tithing has blessed them. I am so grateful to learn and share in the spirit that is always present in our Relief Society.
Hope you all have a great week and let us know if there is any needs that you or your neighbors may have. Love you all!
