A day of service

A couple of Sundays ago, I guess it was the 25th of November I got to go and help some of the Sandy victims clean up their houses. It was a good day. It was unbelievable to see the neighborhood. There was sand everywhere that had been washed up, like piles and piles of sand. It was like a beach in the middle of a neighborhood. We spent a few hours helping a lady clean her house and her yard. There was debris everywhere. In her bushes there was a clear line of where the water hit. There was trash and insulation stuck all through her bushes that had been washed up by the water. It was a good experience.  Latter-day Saints and other volunteer groups spent literally thousands of hours serving those who were hit by the storm. It is great to see a community come together at such a time of crisis.
