Relief Society Page

Dear Sisters,

Today we shared our conversion stories in Relief Society.  We also talked about why we personally want to share the gospel with others.  This was such an interesting and inspiring lesson to hear the perspectives and experiences of many sisters.  Thank you Sister Taci Durrant for leading this discussion.  

Next week we will be combining with the Priesthood for a lesson on family history.

Congratulations this week to Sister Sydney Davie and family and Sister Sally Rodriquez and family who both had baby boys!  This was the first baby for both families. Mothers and babies are doing well.

The following announcement is from Sister Layna Amelang:

My friend, Christine Bergeson, from Utah sent me an email asking if I knew any families who would be willing to host her daughters High School basketball team.    

They are wondering if there are any host families that could have them sleep in sleeping bags at their houses. There are about 10 girls on the team. The dates are from the 7/27 to the 7/30. They  don't expect to be all hosted in one house, so please , even if you can only 2 to 3 girls at a time, let sister Bergeson know.

If your family is willing to be a host, please contact Sister Bergeson at christine@bergeson.org and let her know.

Thanks,   

Layna Amelang

If you have an announcement you would like to put in this email, send it to Andrea Gehmlich abomb36@hotmail.com.

We love you,

Sallee, Erin, Debs, and Andrea
