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

ANNUAL DI DRIVE FOR BACK TO SCHOOL SUPPLIES!!

Each ward in our stake has been assigned to donate backpacks (new or gently used).

In addition, each ward has been assigned a specific item such as pencils/erasers, crayons, markers, etc. OUR ASSIGNMENT (IN ADDITION TO BACKPACKS) IS

SPIRAL BOUND NOTEBOOKS


These are the 100 sheet (or so) paper filled spiral notebooks that are frequently really inexpensive at Walmart about now. Sometimes these are $.25 or less. Please bring your backpacks and or paper notebooks to church each week and we will collect them for delivery to the DI in Federal Way by August 2nd. Thanks for all your help. This drive helps a lot of families get their children the supplies they will need for school in September.
