Announcements...
1. These families are in charge of cleaning the building Saturday at 4:00 p.m.-- Blackhurst, Reese, Speirs, Ostler, Gardner, Evans, Clinton, Hampton, Barney.
2. Women’s Basketball--February 3rd, 10th, and 17th, at 9:00 pm at the Stake Center. No basketball on February 24th.
3. Back to the Basics Challenge
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. Thursday, Feb. 24th at 7:00 p.m. will be our Service Swap at the church. A service swap will be a fun way for us to share our talents and creativity in serving one another. We would like each sister to bring one item of service they would be willing to donate to another sister. Some ideas might be sewing badges on a scout uniform, tutoring, a baked item, homemade cards, hair accessories or braiding, a FHE treat, homemade jam, or a commitment for future service (watching children while sisters visit the temple). Be creative! Please bring your act of service wrapped that night. We will be "swapping" the service in an entertaining way. If your item is a future act of service, please bring a description of the service wrapped that evening.
6. Next week's lesson- GP #26 Sacrifice.
Have a great week!
Love,

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."

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!!!

4. Message from Kristelle Hampton-
Hi Everyone! I am looking for a copy of the book “Fishers of Men” The first volume of a 3 set series the Kingdom and the Crown. I’ve tried to get this at the Library but to no avail… they can’t find the book. Does anyone have a copy of this book and would be willing to let me borrow it?
Thanks!

5. Back to the Basics Challenge
In his talk from October General Conference, President Uchtdorf said, "Brothers and sisters, diligently doing the things that matter most will lead us to the Savior of the world. That is why "we talk of Christ, we rejoice in Christ, we preach of Christ, we prophesy of Christ,...that we may know to what source we may look for a remission of our sins." In the complexity, confusion, and rush of modern living, this is the "more excellent way."
This year as a Relief Society we want to focus on things that matter most. Each month we will have a Relief Society challenge that will help us get "back to the basics." For January our theme is scripture study. Our challenge to you is to accept Bishop Garlick's invitation to read the New Testament as a family this year. Make a plan that will work for your situation, then take time each day to allow your testimony of Christ to be strengthened as you read and study His life and teachings.
