Operation V-Day

Fact 1: Guys don’t care about Valentines Day like girls do.
Fact 2: If a girl received a valentine she would be happy.

If girls were taking tests on the night of Valentines Day, they probably didn’t have a Valentine. Ammon and I decided to go the BYU testing center and give Valentines (Candy) to girls as they came out of the testing center. It was pretty fun! We only had 3 rejections. We met two girls that were inspired by us who joined us and gave candy to guys. Bless their souls.


Lesson we learned:
At the beginning, we were standing outside. The responses were great! Almost everyone enjoyed it. Then we got cold and went inside. The results inside weren’t as great. Our valentines seemed to come off generic and canned. Ammon pointed out an interesting concept. Our service was accepted more and had a bigger affect when it was more inconvenient for us.

Thats so cool you guys! Elder Bednar once said that its not true service unless you have to sacrifice something. Thats pretty much what you experienced. How sweet.
