| I was very excited to receive the envelope today of the bracelets that I ordered for our Primary children. They arrived in a very timely manner. |

| Hi..I wanted to share a poem that I wrote that can apply to each one of us YW and YW leaders...Enjoy and share if you would like to....Thanks..Deborah Finneran, Highlands Ward, YW Pres.
The Snowflake
The snowflake, so beautiful and refined
Its divine sparkle, created by “The Master” of mine
Christ is the Master of whom I speak
He is “The Master” of you and me
He creates the snowflakes in His own way
Just as He creates each of us from day to day
He cuts and snips and fashions His different grand designs
Sometimes we’ll miss it, if we don’t stop to look or take our time
But when we look, we’ll see the beauty that He creates
We will marvel & wonder at the snowflakes He makes
Remember, we are like His snowflakes too
He cuts and snips at us & it often hurts it’s true
Yet it’s so royal and splendid what He’s making out of us
If we will just give Him the scissors & in His brilliance trust.
We are meant to be cut, snipped, folded & continually refined
Because once opened up, His glorious creations are all, we will find.

| Turn your tankini into a one piece swimsuit, by adding swim wear fabric to connect the two pieces. You can also add pieces just about anywhere on a mostly modest tankini to improve it. Your one piece swimsuit is now suitable for girls camp and you won't worry about a thing! |

| I wish that I had this resource available to me when I held some of my other church callings. Now I am the Ward Librarian; and would like to find some ways to help the Primary and Ward members to realize the wealth of resources available to all of them. There is so much that could help families as well as the other auxiliaries.
I have several ideas; and would like to share one of them with you now and hope to kindle and receive ideas about others. I am a 'trash to treasures' person; and I hate to see all of the old (after 10 years) church magazines and church news papers just discarded.
I hope to take the old magazines (especially 'The Friend') and remove pictures, games, Mormon ads, and picture stories; and put them into suitable 'quiet books' for the Primary children to use in Sacrament Meeting and at conference time. I have done a few of these (in pictures only) in another Ward about 18 years ago; and they still use them! They each had pictures of the 1st Presidency and a picture of the Savior when the book is first opened; and they each had their own theme as follows:
1. The life of the Savior:
2. The duties of the Priesthood:
3. The Temples and Families: This started with a young couple walking hand in hand toward a temple; and ended with a couple with children walking away from a Temple.
4. Service: Different ways we serve each other
Those are the only ones I still remember!
This time I will use sheet protectors and 3 ring binders instead of the static photo albums which are not holding up too well.
I hope to get some mothers and some of the YW to help put these together; perhaps as a service project.
They were kept in the Library and brought out just before the appropriate meetings. |

| I have a vinyl business in Twin Falls Idaho and I have a unique home decor that helps the whole family in organizing the Family Home Evening. This can be purchased completed but what I would love to do is have some of the Relief Society Presidents contact me and make kits up for the ladies to put together themselves. No home should be without one of this beautiful and helpful home decor. I will look forward to hearing from all you ladies. Please email me @ dazzlemedesigns@hotmail.com |
