Thank you so much to all the wonderful sisters on the Relief Society Activities Committee who helped put on an amazing activity on Thursday night: Amber Marie Molina, Linda Bacon Russell, Tasha Tippetts Davidson, and Shayla Perdue Caldwell! The music, food, and decorations were fantastic. Thank you so much to Christie Winward Howell for hosting all of us for dinner and getting all that food ready and Teresa Godfrey Hemmingerfor welcoming us in for appetizers! I wish the entire ward had been able to attend and to enjoy the sisterhood and feel of the spirit as we met 4 amazing women of faith. Four wonderful sisters from the Parker's Landing Ward came and presented themselves as women from the past: Ruth- Carol Ketring, Hannah- Jennifer Robertson, Stripling Warrior's Mom- Adele Fuger, Lucy Mack Smith- Laurel King. They all did an amazing job, I feel like I really met these women from history! 

Thank you Kathee Nelson for the fantastic lesson today! I know it's already been brought up and I can't agree more! She had a great handout and shared a wonderful video that she has promised to share on here soon! She taught from the manual the Teachings of Ezra Taft Benson, #6, Jesus Christ, Our Savior and Redeemer.

Living Christ part 3:
"Though sinless, He was baptized to fulfill all righteousness. He 'went about doing good,' yet was despised for it. His gospel was a message of peace and goodwill. He entreated all to follow His example.”
