For Jackson from Spencer

One of the many things I admire about my close cousin and friend Jackson is he is always willing to help out and invite others to join in on the fun things that would be going on. I have always noticed this amazing trait in Jackson and also noticed I sort of have a problem with that. So this year I decided my project would be to try to enhance these qualities in myself to share with others.  I will be honest most of the year I didn't even know who I had for this project and then I didn't really have a clue what I would do but once the idea came I liked the thought and started to search for opportunities.  There hasn't been any major things I have done or any cool stories to tell about service to others, but people have said they truly appreciated my help and without it their labor would have taken much longer and been much harder.  Most of this service was helping out with yard work I noticed elderly people in my ward needed help with.  In autumn I notice a man was raking his leaves and I invited two friends and we went over to help him; he graciously accepted and we got to work for a good hour and a half (He had a big backyard).  Apparently the next week he bore his testimony in high priests about the goodness in the ward and made us an example.  Another example is the other week my next door neighbor was shoveling her walkway by her self and I offered to help.  Every time we have had heavy snow in Lehi since I have helped her with her walkway and sidewalks. Anyways I have also tried to invite younger cousins who want to do stuff with us to come with us and also just friends at school. I can't say if I have truly helped someone out but I know that Jackson has on his younger cousins.
