14 Day Walk With Christ

We had a special activity Tuesday, Nov 13 as Sister Beck kicked off our 14 Day Walk With Christ. We were all dressed in shawls and sandals and given "candles" to set the mood. The Relief Society room was decorated very elegantly and peacefully as different images and statues reflected our Savior. As we sat on the floor, Sister Beck spoke about we cannot truly understand a person unless we have walked in their shoes. A beautiful video was shown about the life of Christ and then we were challenged to be inspired by the 14 Day Walk. Each girl was given 14 envelopes to open 1 each day for the next 14 days. Inside are different questions, stories, and thought provoking challenges and statements to help us understand what it means to be a disciple of Christ. We hope you are enjoying this activity and can't wait to hear how it's going for each and every one of you.

Service Activity

Tuesday, November 6, we had the opportunity to serve the Elderly by bringing them flowers and visiting with them at the nursing home. This was a fantastic activity! We had an overwhelming response of gratitude and love from the people we shared time with, and the joy that comes from service radiated from the Young Women. Some of us had to get out of our comfort zones a bit when it came to talking to the patients there. We were able to sing a few songs for Gordon Young, a member of our ward, and promised that we would be back soon.

Halloween Combined Activity

On October 30 we combined with the Young Men for a Halloween Social! Sister Mebius taught a line dance, there was great refreshments, and everyone enjoyed a fun everning. What can I say, a picture says a thousand words!

Class Activities

We had class activities October 23 (I know, I'm way behind but I did just get back in town!)
The beehives carved pumpkins and had some awesome jack-o-lanterns. The Miamaids made Christmas Candles at Sister Schaeffer's house. If anyone has pictures, forward them to me and I'll post them. The Laurels made pies at Sister Fergusons. So we had an eventful and constructive night using and learning lots of talents. Hope everyone had a fun Halloween!
