Encourage and Serve One Another

Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing (1 Thessalonians 5:10).

November is the time of year when we take stock of the things for which we are thankful β€” the harvest, our ability to worship freely, good health, our families and friends. Praise God for these blessings!

However, some years we may find it more difficult to be thankful. Maybe we are dealing with a physical ailment, a broken relationship, the loss of a loved one, or loneliness.

As Lutheran Women in Mission, we state in our LWML Pledge that we consecrate to our Savior our hands to work for Him, our feet to go on His errands, and our lips to proclaim His redeeming love. One way to share His redeeming love is to encourage and build up one another. We can do this through the service activities found on the website. When we encourage and serve others our focus turns to others and provides us opportunities to be thankful once again.
