In these pages you will find stories about fulfilling callings to minister, as well as stories of simply helping Heavenly Father’s children in need. Whether told by the person doing the ministering, or by the person being ministered to, each story in this book is heartwarming and will inspire you as you strive to follow the Savior’s perfect example of service.
