Sunday 9th June

Today we had 9 visitors in Relief Society. We hope they enjoyed their visit and that some of you got to speak to some of them. There were a large no of sisters in Releif Society and we all got to participate in the lesson. We sang a Primary Song about baptism and then Sister Pat Barwick gave us an interesting lesson about Baptism and the Holy Ghost.
