Sunday Snippet

Hello! I am so happy to hear, some people are checking our blog to keep up to date with what is happening in Relief Society. I now know I am not alone here in blog world!!

Today in Relief Society we had a fun music spot with Sister Debbie... guess the language Jenny Philips was singing her song in... I do not know if we really found out, but it was so fun and a good laugh. Sister Debbie volunteered to do five minute music this week. If you have a good idea for this spot, please let us know, our music lady Sister Bev is overseas for a couple of months, so this might be your chance to show off your star talents:)


Sister Pat taught today's lesson from the Gospel Principles book, first cab off the rank with lesson one. She spoke about the Plan our Father in Heaven must have had to create the earth and likened this to the creation of children and how we as parents have a plan for our children. We plan life will be a certain way for our kids, because we want them to be happy and find joy in life. The lesson is only a short one and can be read by clicking here. Sister Sue told us about the plan she had for Josh to learn to honour the priesthood, she purchased him a white shirt and tie while he was in primary in order to assist him with this plan. Sister Dorothy shared that her mother had taught her the importance of thrift and her mother demonstrated this skill by example and Sister Dorothy still practises this in her life today.

Thank you Pat for teaching. A great lesson as always. We have also been missing our pianist in RS, Emmy has been wonderful helping us out. Thank you for sharing your talent Emmy and thank you to Lauren for choristing.

Guess what I found out today, Sister Lauren is moving to Sydney to get married in Feb. Next week will be her last Sunday. Give her a hug and wish her luck when you see her, she is a gem in RS and always helps out when she can. I appreciate that! Good Luck and love with you Lauren.

Do you remember the quilts we have talked about for the last couple of months? Well we have organised a quilting/sewing day at the chapel. Sister Debbie has volunteered her day to be there to offer her expert advice. Children and Young Women are welcome and encouraged to come along. We will start at 10am on the 28th of January and finish at 3pm. If those who intend to come along could please bring a salad, potato, coleslaw, pasta, green or something like. I will go and buy some legs and breast chicken and bread rolls and we will share a casual lunch together. So come along and have a fun day. RSVP this post and write down what type of salad you will bring.

Missionary meals roster looked a little better this week. Thank you, I did notice, however, that the Hobart guys could still be a little hungry, if you live in West Hobart, Moonah, Lenah Valley, New Town or Mount Stuart... your missionaries are hungry, please take a night out to share a meal with them.

Okay.... what to remember... sewing day, bring sewing gear, salad, trikes, balls or toys for kids and a smile.
