Tis the season to #LighttheWorld. Day 1 invited us to give freely. The video showed two vending machines set up in Time Square in New York City. One was a regular vending machine labeled "get". The other was a special vending machine labeled "give." Inside there were multiple choices of items to help those in need. You could pick socks, or medicine, eye glasses, clean water, chickens or a goat that gives milk or many other things. Instead of getting from the machine, you could pay into the machine and the money would go to the cause you selected. So awesome!
Well, they shipped that very vending machine back from New York and placed it in the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. We took the family to see the lights at Temple Square, but went mostly to take the opportunity to visit the "giving machine." We decided to donate 100 meals for those in need in our local community. It was another joyous occasion for the entire family as we freely gave.
