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

Let’s PLAY!

Starting next week (Feb 2nd) meet at the church every Wednesday from 10am-11:30ish for PLAY DATES! Please spread the word to anyone who might be interested, especially neighbors or friends. Yesterday Sherm shared with the Ward Council our Ward Mission Theme for the year:

"We will prepare ourselves to receive the very elect by cleansing our homes and our very souls that when God sends them our way they can recognize a difference and want to abide with us." Bishop Peterson

This is a great way for our friends to get to know us, our beliefs, the way we live and why. We are being asked to reach out and invite them to join us for these play group to fulfill this charge. I really feel like we can do a lot by this small and simple thing.

If you have any questions, let me know.

Thanks!
