Tour of the Mishnah - Part 2

Rabbi Shaffer,
I have one question: On Shabbat, what I understand is that we are not allowed to do any labor for which we could make a profit. But to do a good deed, like helping someone in need, carrying a baby at home is alright. But what about going to an orphanage, where there are babies who need the loving care of a volunteer, like myself, who is sixty three years of age and keep the Shabbat, I do not go to work, but in any case if there is a need, could I go to the orphanage? I have not done it yet, but as I heard your teachings I was wondering.
Thank you in advance for your kind answer to my inquiry.
Blessings.

i would like to remind everyone that none of the Mitzvahs of these holidays can be completed if you are alone. Please talk to your local Rabbi to come to a understanding on how to get together. May He grant you all the merit you need to live together as one.
