'I was sick and ye visited me.' (Matthew 25:36)

Sickness and hard times affect us all eventually. We can help lift those who are suffering, even if all we do is devote a little time to visiting them.

Did you know that there’s a shortage of donations of all blood types around the winter holidays?

Give blood at your local blood bank today.

Did you know that 60% of those in nursing homes will never have a visitor during their stay?

Go visit a resident to lift someone’s spirits today.

Could a family member or fiend use some spiritual medicine?

Resolve to pray daily for your loved ones who need spiritual strength or healing.

Thomas S. Monson April 1991 'A Royal Priesthood'

Children once shunned now live normal lives. The spring of their step and the sound of their joy seem to echo, “I was sick, and ye visited me.”
