History of Mormonism and Service
History within Mormonism covers so many situations and since 1830. Service is most common within every family unit where the service every father, mother, and child would give for their daily sustenance. Older, historical days required more service by the common Mormon person than what happens in today's society. In earlier days, the common person maintained their own homes, means of transportation, food production, health needs and more. Today, people have access to specialists for every human need: mechanics, doctors and nurses, contractors, grocers, etc.
Although there are many life conveniences today, God's commandment and expectation of His children is the same -- to serve one another. So, today, giving service takes more conscious effort than the once typical Mormon lifestyle. People still get sick, have accidents, need help getting their vehicles to mechanics, but helping our neighbors and friends can be challenging. Visiting people as friends just to show we care is a valuable service in such an automatically fixable society. Helping our neighbors may not take as much time as was once needed, but if we are looking, we can find ways to help others in need.
