March Activity
Thursday March 4 at 7pm
Cary Building
Corner #1 - Service Craft: Nursery Puppets
Have you had a chance to serve lately? Want to help out our ward family & our little nursery kids? Then don’t miss this opportunity to serve! Together, we will be making finger puppets for the nursery children. Don’t worry, no crafting experience or talent required!
Corner #2 – Your Unfinished Projects
Go ahead and open that dreaded cupboard or closet in your house where all your unfinished projects are heaped. It’s time to dust them off and finish them up! Just imagine it…a whole 90 minutes of uninterrupted time for you to socialize and craft it up! Don’t forget to bring all your gear!
Corner #3 – Visiting Teaching Candy Buffet
Candy! Sweet candy galore! Oh how I’d love to visit the candy store!
Not a crafter? Come anyways and create a candy bag with a message to drop off when you visit teach this month!
This is not a quarterly activity so NO childcare will be provided. Contact Emily with any questions.

February Activities
When you get a new purse or clean out your purse everything is so neat and organized, then as you go through your life you fill it with stuff, sometimes clutter but often times good stuff.However sometimes your purse is so full that you can't find what you need or have room for the essential things that you quickly need access to in a pinch.
Sometimes we fill our lives with so many things that we think are good and worth carrying around, that there is no room for the great essentials. We forget to clean out our purse until it is too heavy to carry.
Join us for our RS quarterly activity as we take time for some purse’onal reflection---how much are we carrying around in our life’s purse?
Dinner & childcare provided. See sign-up sheet in RS notebook if you would like to help.
Please bring a contribution to help fill up our purse with donations to the UNC Lineberger Cancer Center. Donations should be focused on age group 18-25 yrs, and all items should be new. Suggested items: soft cozy socks or slippers, fleece blankets, playing cards, crossword puzzles, sudoku, large cotton or rayon scarves for head wraps, hats that will cover the hairline, journals, scrapbook supplies, individually wrapped hot chocolate, cup-of-noodles, herbal tea, gently used magazines, light hearted books.
Join us as we frost, decorate, eat, and swap cookies! Children are welcome to participate. Please see the RS notebook to signup & bring an item.
