The Youth and some of the leaders are going on a "Trek Experience" in April. We have been announcing how we are going to need sisters to help with this project. There was a meeting after church yesterday, and some of the details are starting to come together.
Here's what we need now:
1) We need to know if there are sisters w/ extra material around their house that they could donate--we will be making bonnets, aprons, skirts, etc. from this material.
2) We need a list of sisters that can sew and that can donate some time over the next 6 weeks to make pioneer clothes. (We have the patterns and the names of the youth that need help with the costumes. We are needing costumes for the Young Men and the Young Women).
3)We would also like a few sisters that are willing to "bargain shop" for good deals for the misc. items and perhaps additional fabrics.
Please email fulford83@aol.com or brittanmitchell@gmail.com if you can help in any way. There will be a meeting on Feb. 4th (time not yet determined) to coordinate all the efforts of the volunteers!
Please help the youth of this ward have an enjoyable experience that will build their testimonies!!!!

Quote from Elder Ballard
I get a weekly update from the stake, and this was the quote they used this week! I liked it so I decided to post it here! I hope you enjoy it too :)
"We need to remember that the full commitment of motherhood and of putting children first can be difficult. Through my own four-generation experience in our family, and through discussions with mothers of young children throughout the Church, I know something of a mother's emotions that accompany her commitment to be at home with young children. There are moments of great joy and incredible fulfillment, but there are also moments of a sense of inadequacy, monotony, and frustration. Mothers may feel they receive little or no appreciation for the choice they have made. Sometimes even husbands seem to have no idea of the demands upon their wives.
"As a Church, we have enormous respect and gratitude to you mothers of young children. We want you to be happy and successful in your families and to have the validation and support you need and deserve."
M. Russell Ballard, "Daughters of God," Ensign, May 2008
