Ordinary people who faithfully, diligently, and consistently do simple things that are right before God will bring forth extraordinary results.
-Elder David A. Bednar
This year the service project for the conference is designed to help benefit the lives of just some of the children who are orphans in this world. We will be doing a donation drive to collect items that will benefit both locally “The Tennyson Center for Children” in Denver, Colorado, and across the world with “Mothers Without Borders” in Zambia, Africa.
There will be donation rooms designated in each of the buildings of the conference allowing all who wish to participate an easy way to contribute to the service project. The following are lists of needs that can benefit the children.
Donation Items Requested:

Baby blankets Full size tubes of toothpaste
Small baby sleepers Hand towels and wash cloths, preferable not white
Cloth Diapers Kid’s Body Wash

“Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
Matthew 25:34-40
