Finally Catching Up!
Sorry Sisters - it has been such a long time since I updated this blog! I didn't even realize how long it has been! I will try to be better - much better! - about it!
A few dates to remember:
July 15 - Book Club at 7:30 pm at Donna Barnes' home
July 29 - Night Relief Society Meeting
Our Summer Relief Society Activity is going to be a lot of fun this year. We will be eating salads and putting together kits for women and children in the Women's Shelter. There was a sign-up going around in church for both the salad and the items to go in the kits. If you did not see either one look for it next week, or call DeLonne for more information.
Also, if you are working on the Spirit of Ammon award, just remember that you have until November to finish the Book of Mormon (if you are like me I have some serious catching up to do!) Also, another thing you could do is write a letter to one of our many wonderful missionaries!
Hope you all have a great week!!
