Relief Society, which has the responsibility "to look after the spiritual welfare and salvation… of all the female members of the Church, was organized to provide 'relief of the poor, the destitute, the widow, and the orphan, and for the exercise of all benevolent purposes.' This includes 'relief of poverty, relief of illness, relief of doubt, relief of ignorance; relief of all that hinders the joy and progress of woman.' " - Julie B. Beck

Happy May Day

HAPPY MAY DAY SISTERS

What a gorgeous day here in Maple Valley to celebrate this first day of May.
Also, this month is Stroke Awareness month.

Do you know how to indentify signs of stroke?


Act
F
A
S
T
FACE (ask the person to smile, does the face droop?)

ARMS (ask the person to raise both arms, does one drift downward?)

SPEECH (ask the person repeat a simple phrase, are the words slurred?)

TIME (if any of these symptons occur, time is important. Brain cells are dying, get to a hospital.)
Please take time to remember these signs so they can help you in time of need.
HAPPY MAY!
