Express gratitude, testifies of prophet. Monson saves others, people are faced with calamities and are in need of help. There are natural disasters everywhere. Church is reaching out with humanitarian aid, fast offerings. Literal helping hands. Remember the poor and needy and sick and afflicted.
Focus on hands that help and save spiritually. Many need spiritual help, less active memebers... we invite all to come unto christ. As a new convert, I experienced spiritual rescue. I grew up in Japan... surrounded by mountains. At 17, he met the missionaries. The elders had something wonderful, they were diligent and filled with light. I wanted to become like them. I listened and decided to be baptized. My parents opposed, but he got permission and was baptized. He was lonely in college and strayed from the church. Got a postcard from someone back home that invited him back to church. Helped him realize he had lost something important. He remembered Moroni's promise. He wasn't praying with all his heart.... when he prayed and was filled with the spirit.
He made a commitment to repent and faithfully follow. He served a mission out of gratitude to church memeber who rescued him. Blessed with 4 children, it was his resuer who married him.
Leaders who take time with members and serve... teach the gospel... examples of helping others, testify, loved by many. Follow counsel of prophet out of free will, joyfully. The lord will help us save others and help others.
