Be Prepared Not Scared






************************************************************************************
I tell you these things because of your prayers; wherefore, treasure up wisdom in your bosoms, lest the wickedness of men reveal these things unto you by their wickedness, in a manner which shall speak in your ears with a voice louder than that which shall shake the earth; but if ye are prepared ye shall not fear. D&C 38:30

      On Saturday, October 24th, the sisters of the Welby 7th Ward participated in a Super Saturday.  They created supplies that would benefit their families in time of challenge or natural disaster.  Sister Jennifer Davis taught the sisters how to be prepared in time of medical emergency. Sister Chari Dickison explained some water sanitation strategies as well as exposing the sisters to materials that would add ease to surviving a crisis.  
       Sisters enjoyed socializing over a delicious soup lunch.  Part of being prepared is spiritual preparation.  As members of the Relief Society, we are blessed to have enjoy other. From out sisters, we learn how to endure and we build faith knowing that in time of need, we have each other.

Evening of Excellence


Young Women in Excellence 2015
By: Alyssa Vandenberg
 “We must develop the faith necessary to survive spiritually and to project a light for others. We must nurture our testimony until it becomes an anchor to our lives.” – President Monson
Young Women in Excellence is a night where the Young Women are honored for all the work they have done with the Personal Progress Program.  This year, the theme for ours was “Anchored in Christ”, and it was an awards show.  The decorations looked just like an awards show, and we all dressed up red carpet ready. 


The hosts talked about each of the Young Women Values, and everyone walked down the red carpet with everyone else who did a project for that Value. Everyone also made a short video about what they did for their project, and then went up to give their acceptance speech.
Kirsten Davis was one of the hosts.

Mikayla was in the Faith category and made it there just in time, right before we were done with speeches!


We also had some Young Women share their talents with us during the program.

Skylie Doyle and Ellie Midgley sang “Gethsemane”, accompanied by Kryshelle Kindred on the piano.

Rylie Butterfield played “How Great Thou Art” on the piano.
