Seriously, Just Try This
Have you seen the helps available for memorizing the scripture mastery scriptures? Check this out. Click on one of the Book of Mormon scriptures. You can take out sections, you can listen to it, you can have it give you hints. Really. If you haven't memorized the scripture ma
stery scriptures yet, just try this. See how many you can pass off by the deadline.
Not only do we have amazing ways to assist us in memorization but the bishopric is giving us an extra week!! The new date for the pizza feast is Saturday, June 12. It will be at noon behind the church building. As long as at least one member of the family has memorized the scripture mastery scriptures, the whole family can come. (I've heard rumors of it being even more lenient than this.) Just make a sincere effort to memorize as many as you can. I absolutely believe that when we have scriptures memorized, the Holy Ghost can use them to guide us at any time. Just read 2 Nephi 32:3.

Save & Swap
Are your closets filled with stuff you won't use anymore? Clothes your kids have grown out of but are still in great shape, that bread machine that never gets used because you'd really rather make brea
d by hand ;) Bring it to our Save and Swap night Tuesday, May 11 at 6:30 PM. You can dump your stuff on the tables in the cultural hall and after a lesson and discussion on couponing and ways to save money, we'll be able to look through all the things we each brought and find the thing you were planning on buying next week. Who can complain about getting free stuff?
If you have a furniture item or something that would be difficult to tote to the building, bring a picture of it and we can set that out to see if it's something someone could use.
Here's another reason to bring your things--to support the Young Women. How would we be doing that, you ask? All of the remaining items will be used for the Young Women yard sale/fundraiser.
There will be childcare available to those who need it. And of course refreshments!
