December Ministering Bingo Free Printable
December is full of opportunities to share the light of Jesus Christ. It's also full of Christmas shopping, school programs, wrapping presents, baking cookies, family traditions, and wondering how we're possibly going to fit everything in.
And guess what? The women we minister to are probably feeling much the same way! So this December, let's make ministering part of the Christmas joy. Our free December Ministering Bingo has 24 simple ideas to help you share the Savior's love, strengthen friendships, and bring a little extra Christmas cheer to someone else's life.
Save it for later, pin in it now
One of the beautiful things about Christmas is how many opportunities we already have to share with others.
Making Christmas cookies? Invite your ministering sisters to bake with you. Going to the temple? See if she'd like to join you. Going to the ward Christmas party? Offer to save them a seat.
Often, it's as simple as making room for one more person in something you're already doing. Of course, we also want to respect the traditions and time of the families we minister to. An invitation should feel like an opportunity, not an obligation. And don't forget those spending the holidays alone. A small invitation to join in the Christmas fun might mean more than we realize.
Light the World in Little Ways
We love the Church's Light the World invitation to follow Jesus Christ by sharing His love with others. And ministering gives us a wonderful opportunity to put that invitation into action.
This month's Bingo board includes ideas to help us serve without adding a lot of extra work:
Offer to pick something up while you're Christmas shopping.
Help with a holiday chore.
Invite your ministering sister to serve someone else with you.
Ask if there's something she's worried about this season.
Take time to listen without rushing to fix everything.
That last one is especially important. Not every problem needs a solution from us. Being someone who listens, remembers, and genuinely cares is a wonderful gift. And while Christmas is a joyful season, it can also be difficult for those grieving loved ones, facing financial struggles, or dealing with challenges we may know nothing about. A little kindness and sensitivity can go a long way.
And here's one square we especially encourage you not to overlook: Reach out after Christmas.
When the decorations start coming down and visiting family members head home, a thoughtful message or phone call can help someone feel remembered long after the Christmas celebrations have ended.

Christmas gives us so many ways to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. As we enjoy our own traditions and make memories with our families, let's look for simple opportunities to help others feel His love, too.
