What’s on Your Mind?
I feel scared when I hear about bad or scary things happening. What can I do to feel better? —Scared in Saskatchewan

Dear Scared,
When something scary happens, you can turn to Heavenly Father in prayer, to the scriptures, and to a grown-up you trust. All of these can help you feel peace. Serving others can also help the Holy Ghost bring you peace. Here are a few ideas for serving others. Put your own ideas in the blank spaces!

A sick family member |

Donate to the Church humanitarian fund or other service projects |

People who need help in my neighborhood |

Walk them away from the bully and tell an adult |
