Virtue of the Month

Service

Service is giving to others, making a difference in their lives. You consider their needs as important as your own. Be helpful without waiting to be asked. Do every job with excellence. When you act with a spirit of service you can change the world.

You are practicing Service when you ...

• Want to make a difference in the world
• Look for opportunities to be of service to others
• Do thoughtful things to help your family and friends
• Work with enthusiasm
• Don’t wait to be asked when something needs doing
• Do your part for the earth: recycle, reduce, re-use

Affirmations

I am a person of service
I have compassion for those who need help
I do my part to make a better world
