New Entries

I’ve added entries for Learning and Living the Gospel – number 2 and number 8.  I’m going to try and do more on the other areas – hopefully in the next couple of weeks.

Our stake recently had a stake activity day.  This year each ward primary has been collecting items needed to complete school bag kits for distribution by the Church Humanitarian Services.  At the stake activity day all the girls in the stake helped assemble the kits.  There were tables set up around the gym, each with 1 type of item.  The girls were invited to make name tags (tags that they decorated with paper petals on which they were encouraged to write their name and things they liked) and then there was a “getting to know you” activity.  Each girl was given a worksheet where they had to find someone else who had done one of the things on the sheet.  Finally, the girls began going from table to table filling bags with the required items.  There was a long table set up with “quality control” girls who double checked each bag, which were then placed in boxes.  It was really cool to see all those bags!  And did I mention all the snacks that the girls could eat while going around from table to table?

Have you done something fun in your stake lately?  Wanna share??
