Happy Birthday Relief Society...


Last Thursday we celebrated the organization of the Relief Society at our Enrichment Night. Since our enrichment leader was out of town, I was in charge.  We used "Sisterhood Around the World" as our theme.  We decided to work on humanitarian items that would be sent to our sisters around the world in need.  We tied three quilts, put together 35 hygiene kits, and made file folder games that will go into modules with other items to be sent to orphanages.  We had finger foods from around the world and birthday cake.  Everything was so good it was hard to pick a favorite... the stuffed grape leaves were at the top of the list though.  Behind the food tables, we had two tables with display items from around the world.  It was a fun evening and everyone seemed to have a good time.  There are over five and a half million Relief Society sisters in 170 countries around the world...... Happy Birthday Relief Society!  (organized March 17, 1842)
