100 Dresses

100 dresses activity
Date: Thursday, January 28, 2010
Time: 6:30 p.m.
Location: Relief Society Room at the churchouse

We are asking each of the sisters to do the following prior to the activity:

1. Read the book, it's a children's book, so it's really short and a really fast read (contact Stephanie, Tonia, Dorothy, or Megan if you need a copy to borrow).

2. Find a photo of yourself in a dress on a significant day in your life (baby blessing, baptism, wedding, etc.). We are going to play a fun game with the photos. Please get your photos to Stephanie, Tonia, Dorothy, or Megan prior to Thursday, if possible. You will get your photos back after the activity.

For the activity itself, please:

3. Bring a dress (in good condition) to donate. We are trying to collect 100 dresses in all shapes, sizes, and colors to donate, so if you have several dresses, feel free to bring more than one.

4. If you want to bring an appetizer, sign up on the sign-up sheet on Sunday.

This is going to be a great activity centered around the book and dresses.

Look forward to seeing you there!

Family Home Evening Swap

Come to the Family Home Evening swap! Thursday, January 14th at 6:30 p.m. at the church. Please bring a simple family home evening packet for the swap.

We will be providing one family home evening packet on TITHING for you to take home and we will be doing a swap for the packets brought by the other sisters.

For some great ideas go to:

http://www.sugardoodle.net/Family%20Home%20Evening/FHEIndex.shtml

(NOTE: Not all of the links work, but there are some good ones that do work.)

Some things to include in your family home evening packet for the swap:
Theme
Song that goes with theme
Scripture that goes with theme
Lesson or story that goes with theme (you can include illustrations for the story, or little puppets to be used for the story)
Activity that goes with theme (you can include items used for the activity in the packet)
Recipe for treat

For example: If your FHE theme is prayer, the activity for younger children can be coloring a picture of a family praying - older children can be decorating a prayer rock - teenagers can be testimonies on how prayer has influenced their lives. For your packet you would need a typed up page with the theme, song, scripture, lesson/story (along with any illustrations that could be used), and instructions for the activity along with materials for the activity (a coloring page or some rocks), and a recipe.

You can call Tonia if you have any questions at 241-6284.

UFO Night

This Friday at Tonia's Allred's house (1180 Willard) all the ladies will be gathering to work on their UFO's. So don't be the only one not there - grab whatever project you have been working on and head over to her house any time between 6:30 and midnight!

Finding the Best in Yourself

Hey Gals

We are having an activity this Thursday at the church at 7:00. We have asked a couple of professional counselors to come and talk to us about finding the best in ourselves. These girls speak to a lot of groups on self esteem and have a great perspective on being happy with the individual that you are. These ladies have made changes to their work schedule to accommodate us and we are very grateful for that. Tell your neighbors you will be picking them up on Thursday and we hope to see you there. And as always there will be good fun, good food, and good friends!
