Experience for yourself the pure love that inspires ordinary women to serve and accept service in a truly extraordinary manner. This inspiring collection of true stories from the lives of women just like you is told with heartwarming sincerity. Perfect for sharing, this remarkable book is sure to uplift, encourage, and cheer any woman, whether it's her turn to serve or be served.

A collection of tender stories of love, kindness, and service. What leads a group of ladies to serve a stranger who is sick for months? Or offer comfort to someone who doesn't even speak the same language and you don't know what her sorrow is about? One thing that I love about the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is the organization called the Relief Society. This organization is for women 18 and older, single or married.  The purposes of this organization can be found in the name Relief Society, it is to help and strengthen each other and extend relief to all who need it members of the church or not. The Relief Society motto is Charity Never Faileth.The stories in this book illustrate some of the ways this motto is put into action. Above everything else, it comes down to love. Love extended to family, friends, and neighbors but also to any in need. If you are looking for a book to inspire and uplift, I recommend this one.
