Service for Natalia- 44th Birthday Edition

We invite everyone who knew and loved Natalia, to join us again for another year of "Service for Natalia."  We love keeping her memory alive in this way, especially for her amazing boys.   We have 3 goals this year;
FIRST- Natalia had a great love of teddy bears.  She collected them, and loved each one. She even decorated her twins nursery with Teddy Bears!  
This year, we decided to do a Teddy Bear Drive for kids in foster care.  When kids are taken out of their homes and put into foster care, Love From Nelli helps make sure they have a suitcase for their belongings, a homemade blanket, and a teddy bear.

You are welcome to join us by purchasing a new teddy bear and delivering it to my parents house(Rick and Doris Garner, reach out for the address) or by purchasing through our AMAZON list.  You are also welcome to send in a donation and we will shop for teddy bears for you!

SECOND- For those that love to sew.... 
Natalia was a medical assistant and LOVED dolls.  Primary Children's Medical Center is in Urgent need of more medical dolls to help explain to children the procedures they are going to go through.  Click HERE to get all the details and pattern.  Once again, deliver to my parents house and they will take them up to Primary Children's.  

3rd- Our goal is to have 440 random acts of kindness done in Natalia's honor.  As always, please pray to be led and guided to who needs your service.  Who needs your smile?  Your forgiveness?  Your time?  A plate of cookies or a loaf of bread? A handwritten note?  Keep your eyes open extra wide these next couple weeks and see what you can do to lift and bless others!  

Please report your service by commenting on this blog, or social media, or through text by October 15th at midnight.  We will post the number of acts of service at her grave for her birthday on October 16th.  

Natalia's favorite scripture was Mosiah 2:17 "And behold, I tell you these things that ye may learn wisdom; that ye may learn that when ye are in the service of your fellow beings ye are only in the service of your God." 

Let's spend the next 15 days making the world a better place one act of service at a time in memory of Natalia, who made the world a better place each and every day she was here.
