My Bishop has recently put me on a committee to do our annual aera day of service. We live in rural GA where alot of people has negative attitudes against the LDS. So the Bishopric has suggested getting out in the community to be seen doing good things for it. In other words not hiding our lighted candle or what ever that parable is...lol
Last year we got with the city in which we live and painted 150 fire hydrants......the year before we cleaned up several parks. The year before that we volunteered at a local farm and patched fences, painted barns, and cleaned it up in general.
This year I don't know what to do.....I hate to do the same things over and over. I want to have a good turn out with the memebers.
Keep in mind we would like to be visible in our service to the community.....but nothing dangerous because of kids that are involved....so adopting a hwy is out of the question. I don't want any kids getting ran over.
Please pass along any ideas!!
Thanks!
