Everyone can use extra kindness and encouragement during this season of COVID-19. Sharing that God is in control and is an ever-ready source of comfort and guidance is the best way we can encourage one another.
As a district president, I encourage our women to be in Bible study and prayer. Prayer requests are shared so that we can pray together for infants, people who are ill, survivors of people who have passed, people who are in our district, plus friends and neighbors near and far. LWML kindness is shown when our women follow up with cards, phone calls, or meals.
Another way of showing kindness is by providing for physical needs of those in our communities. In our church, we have a food drive once a month for a local food pantry. At the drop off site at church, we provide Portals of Prayer and the Lutheran Woman’s Quarterly for donors to read and pass along to others. It is my prayer that you find a way to share God’s comfort during this time.
