Dear Sisters,
Thank you Sister Naomi Martineau for teaching lesson #17 The Strengthening Power of Faith. We discussed some of the great stories of the Old Testament that required a lot of faith; Moses, Noah and Daniel. We discussed how these stories can help build our faith and also how we cope when we don't experience (or recognize) miracles in our own lives. Thank you for all your comments and good job Naomi with her first lesson ever.
Next week's lesson is #18 Stay On the Lord's Side of the Line from the George Albert Smith Manual.
Please remember to pray for our Focus Five sisters.
Happy Birthday this week to Sara Huggins (10th), Nicole Heaps (14th), Karen Shell (14th), and Evania Silva (14th).

"72 missionaries that have ONE shirt"
I (Jenn Moyle) have twin brothers on missions at the moment and my family is missionary mode. My parents are traveling to Puerto Rico and contacted the mission president. He said they were an answer to his prayer because he had just return from one of the islands and had calculated that he has 72 missionaries that have ONE shirt. We are hoping to gather 150 shirts to give to the mission president. If your husband has gently used SHORT SLEEVED shirts please bring them to church next Sunday or contact Jenn Moyle and she will come pick them up. You can drop them off at 3851 Miramar St. Apt H La Jolla 92037. We are trying to collect them by TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 18th. If you would like to contribute money instead my mom is buying 48 shirts in bulk for a great deal and they cost $5.80 a piece. Thank you so much for serving and loving the missionaries all over the world. If you can't contribute anything at this time just include all these faithful missionaries in your prayers.
The missionaries have no dinners scheduled for this Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. If you are willing/able to have them over for dinner, please contact them 619-647-5855 (Elder Farr and Elder Anderson). They would really appreciate it!
Sister Taylor would love to get any pictures you may have taken at the Bishop's birthday party so she can make a little album for him. If you have any pictures, please let her know. She would love to get them on a CD or flash drive.
If you have any announcements for the email, please email Andrea Gehmlich @ abomb36@hotmail.com.
We love you,
Sallee, Julina and Andrea
