Neighborhood Halloween Party
Secret Sisters
We drew for Secret Sisters on Sunday. I hope your creative juices are flowing. Remember to take a picture of whatever you are doing (basket, card, washing dishes, going out to lunch, etc.) and send it to me so that I can add them to the slideshow for our November 12th dinner party. Thanks! and have fun!
Tuesday's activity
We had a great time at our activity on Tuesday. We learned briefly about the new Family Search website and played "Who wants to be a Millionaire: Family History Edition". Our guest speaker was Kim Savage (my sister-in-law) who has been involved with Geneology in many professional aspects. She was wonderful and I hope she helped you feel more confident in doing family history. Thank you to our committee for providing the cutely decorated and delicious cupcake family tree and for Lena Phillips for drawing the tree for us artistically challenged people. I hope everyone had a great time!
General Relief Society Broadcast
Saturday, September 28, 2013
Stake Center
The Broadcast was such a wonderful event. A perfect opportunity to hear from our beloved leaders. For those of you who were not there, we missed you! The General Relief Society Presidency addressed us as well as our wonderful Prophet President Monson. Their messages were simple and sweet. Sister Burton's (President) message was about being "Covenant keepers". Being covenant keepers from the time we are baptized is the way we show our love of the Lord and by being covenant keepers we become strengthened, empowered, and protected. Sis. Stephens' messaged was the same message only it focused more on helping others along their path of covenant keeping. Sis. Reeves shared that we should be renewing our covenants weekly. Finally, President Monson spoke to us about the simple power of Prayer. Pray always because it brings peace. He stated that we need to trust our Heavenly Father in ALL things.
Such a great message! If you would like to watch the message you can click here http://www.lds.org/broadcasts/watch/general-relief-society-meeting/2013/09?lang=eng&vid=2703169989001
Sorry everyone for the lack of updates. It's a good thing that not much
has been going on that I am aware of. On Sept. 10 we had our RS
activity. We had a great time. Sis. Mautz gave a great No-Bake Pie
demonstration with delicious tasters. We were able to fill at least 20
hygiene kits that were delivered to Chancellor Gardens Retirement Center
and multiple crochet ruffle scarfs were made and are still being made
and will be delivered to the Women's Shelter in Kaysville. There were
lots of pies to eat so I hope everyone went home full of deliciousness.
Thanks for coming and we hope to see you at our next activity on October
8th. More details to come so check back.
Bishopric changes
Many of you were at church on Sunday and were surprised with some changes in our Bishopric. We wish to thank Bro. Phillips and Bro. Bisseger for their hard work and dedication as councilors to the Bishop and as leaders of our ward. Bro. Huskinson and Bro. Buhler are great men called to take their places as councilors. We sustain these two men and will support them in all things.
