August 29 Announcements

Hello Sisters!

I know I've been sporadic at best with keeping this up, and it's only likely to get worse once the baby comes! I'll apologize now and hope you can forgive me! Here are a few of our announcements for this week:

1. Don't forget about the Labor Day breakfast (yum!!) on September 6 from 8-9:30 am at the bowery. Any time food is involved you know it will be a good activity! Hope to see you there!!

2. The Women's Broadcast is September 25th at the Stake Center. There will be a light dinner at 5 pm and then we will watch the broadcast at 6 pm. There is a sign-up sheet so they know how much food to plan for, so please make sure you get signed up for that if you are planning on attending.

3. Our next Provident Living class will be September 9 at 7 pm in the RS room.

4. For our 5th Sunday lesson we talked about Emergency Preparedness. Brother Mefford spoke about how our ward is organized in "blocks". In the event of an emergency we are to contact the nearest Priesthood Leader to us (member of the Bishopric, Elder's Quorum Presidency, or High Priest Group Leadership) to let them know the status of the members of our "block". There was a handout of the ward map with each "block" outlined. Brother Baldwin spoke about the city response time and about 72 hour kits. He also had a handout. If you missed getting either of these handouts please contact Brother Mefford or Brother Baldwin.

5. We also discussed cleaning our church building. We are in charge of cleaning until the end of the year. There was a schedule emailed out on Monday. Please look at it and make sure that you put when you are scheduled to clean on your calendars. If you cannot do it on the day you are scheduled please make sure that you get a substitute. We will also remind you on the RS bulletin.

Thanks Sisters! Hope you have a wonderful week!!

It was great to be able to visit with neighbors and get to know some new members of our ward better. Thank you also to everyone who brought salads and donated items for the Women's Shelter. The salads were delicious and we were able to make a lot of kits to donate. You sisters are wonderful!!
