3. Back to the Basics Challenge
Noted psychiatrist and author Elizabeth Kubler-Ross said, "I have never met a person whose greatest need was anything other than real, unconditional love. You can find it in a simple act of kindness toward someone who needs help. There is no mistaking love. You feel it in your heart. It is the common fiber of life, the flame that heals our soul, energizes our spirit and supplies passion to our lives. It is our connection to God and to each other."
In February we invite you to look for simple acts of kindness you can do each day. A kind word, a smile, a friendly wave, a listening ear, a thank you, and other simple gestures take very little effort but do a lot to brighten the lives of those around us. As you continue to study the New Testament, look for ways the Savior interacted with others. Pray to be filled with the love of Christ and try to emulate His example.
4. Choir practice- Sunday 3:15-4:00 at the Gibsons. Sopranos are especially needed, however, the alto section has diminished as well. Please join us and share your talents!
5. Mark your calendars, our next Relief Society mid-week activity will be Thursday, Feb. 24th at 7:00 p.m. at the church. We will be doing a "service auction". A service auction will be a fun way for us to share our talents and creativity in serving one another. We will be sending a sign up sheet around for you to sign what service you'd be willing to donate (it should all be service---no money). Some ideas might be sewing badges on a scout uniform, tutoring, baked item, homemade cards, FHE treat, homemade jam. Be creative! We have so many talents in this ward! The items will be "auctioned" off the evening of Relief Society. These acts of service can be pre-made (like jam), or a commitment for future service (watch your children while you visit the temple). So look for the sign-up sheets, we'll make sure it makes it to each auxiliary. This is going to be super fun!!!
6. Next week's lesson- Presidency Message.
Have a great week!
Love,
The Relief Society Presidency
