RS Announcements 9/16

1. The General Relief Society Broadcast from Salt Lake City will be shown in the “Small Chapel” at the Interstake Center on Saturday, September 24th at 7PM. Following the broadcast, the RS will be serving dessert and have socializing in the small ward cultural hall. (This location is a change from prior announcements, and from the flyer that went out last Sunday.)


2. The Mormon Tabernacle choir performed a 9/11 memorial broadcast with Tom Brokaw as their special guest. You can watch it on LDS.org

3. Vanessa Jackson had her baby boy – Quintin Paul on Wed 9/7, weighed 7lbs 7oz, and 20” long

4. Don’t forget – there are NO MEETINGS at our chapel this coming Sunday 9/18 as it is Stake Conference at the ISC in Oakland at 10am. The adult session is at 7pm on Saturday.

5. Since we no longer have an activities committee in the ward, all the auxiliaries will be helping to put on ward activities. If you would like to help with the ward Halloween party on Saturday, 10 / 29, please tell Kristine Olsen. ( If you can’t help with this activity, then be thinking of which of the other three activities you will help with later: the Christmas party, Pancakes in the Park, and the 24th of July picnic.)

6. The mission president’s wife is expecting a baby boy. The missionaries are collecting baby clothes in good condition to help them.

Have a great week.

Happy Birthday

2. Our Ward Temple night is this Friday 12th at 6:30. The Bishop asked us in our 5th Sunday meeting last week to get involved in Family History in some way prior to Ward Temple night. Study family search and find an ancestor that needs a Temple ordinance done. Call the Gatzemeiers or Cheryl McGregor for help.

3. ”Meal in a bag RS Activity” is on August 11th at 6:30pm. Mary Eggertson, who is in our Stake RS Presidency will be teaching a lesson on being more prepared to serve our sisters and families by assembling “meals-in-a-bag” ahead of time. We will also learn other ways to be more self-reliant with meals. This is a great evening, the ‘meals in a bag’ are presented as gift bags with all the ingredients to make a meal.



4. Guess Who Is Coming To Dinner is Aug 26th & 27. Hosts should be receiving their guest list soon.

5. Next Saturday 2 children in the Ward will be baptized, Jordan Lyon and Tayah Evans. Bring your family to support them at 1pm.
