Shampoo and Conditioner Donations....

Sisters...Thank you so much for your willingness to donate so generously throughout this year! As part of our activity on December 12th, we will be putting the hygiene kits together. We have received enough of most of the items to make 50 kits! But, we are short lots of shampoo and conditioner. If you are able to donate, please let us know...remember they need to be the 12 oz (or so) size bottles.

Thanks again!

Relief Society Activity

The Sounds of Christmas

Do you have a serger?

Teri Thompson writes, "We are looking for a serger or two to use at our activity in December. If you have one that you would be willing to bring (and help us use) please let me know."

Just a heads up.....

Our neighbor, Darrell Oswald writes, "Yesterday we had some of our neighbors notice that there were a group of boys in the neighborhood that didn’t seem right so they called the police. The police came and talked to them and found that they had been going around and stealing from garages and cars that were left open, and from sheds. The police had one of the boys go around with him and show him all the homes that were burglarized. One of our neighbors who had things stolen didn’t even know their garage had been open, and found he had tools and other things taken – fortunately, they were returned to him. Also I heard that in the last 4 days the police said that 8 cars were stolen from around the valley that people had started and left on to warm up while they went back in the house to get ready.  It is a good reminder that we need to be extra vigilant and watch what is going on in the neighborhood."
