    My beloved young friends, determine to serve one another. Opportunities for Christian acts of service do not always come at convenient times. Listen to the spirit when your flesh is weak. For truly the Master said, 'Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me' (Matt. 2540).
