Service Group

Last fall Allison was ask by a friend in the ward if she wanted to join a service group. Once a month one girl from the group plans a service project for them all to participate in. Allison thought it was a great idea and since she needed service hours for NJHS it helped out with that so she joined. They have done a lot of fun things. This month was our turn to plan it. I found some Easter Egg Hunts that we could help out with but then a friend told me about on that was for children with Down Syndrome. I told Allison about my ideas knowing which one she would pick and she didn't disappoint. She has a special place in her heart for people with special needs and jumps at any chance to love and serve them.
Before the kids arrived this morning the girls helped set up by laying out the snacks and getting the eggs ready for them to find.

Once the kids arrived the girls helped at the face painting booth or directing people to the different activities and snacks.

Some of the girls were nervous to do the face painting but Allison wasn't. She was excited to be able to talk to each kid that came to her and knew they were just excited to get their face painted and didn't care if it looked professional.

It was a great morning and I am so grateful that Allison has been apart of this group.
