Park Play Date

Park Play Date is this Tuesday at Fort Steilacoom Park at 11 AM. Feel free to pack a lunch and stay for a while. Drive east on Steilacoom Blvd and turn right on 87th Ave. SW. Take the next right into the park and follow the road until you see the playground.

Park Play Date

Spanaway Lake Park at 11 am on July 20th. There is a great walking trail that goes around the lake, a huge playground, and picnic facilities! There is a $3 parking fee.

Directions: For driving directions click here. This is the back way but you could also take 512 to Pacific Ave.

Park Play Date

July 13th at Sunnyside Beach at 11 am. The lowest tide days of the year are July 10-13, so it should be a great day to do some beach combing. We may have to change this day because we have RS meeting that night. Let us know if you want to do both or move this one to another day.

Directions: To get to the beach take Steilacoom - Dupont Rd (exit 119 take a right onto Steilacoom - Dupont Rd). Take a right on Lafayette and continue to the park which is on your left. You will see the parking lot ($5 fee) before the park. You can't miss it, it's right on the beach! Make sure you have the exact change because there is just a box to push money into it.

Monthly Enrichment Activity

Have you ever wondered what there is to done/see in the area and it's free. Look no longer. We have some sisters in our very own ward that "are in the know". If you haven't already signed up, Mindi W. is looking for sisters that can provide finger foods, fruits, or lemonade/punch. If you have any fun lawn games to play, Mindi would love your help/suggestions. We will be meeting by the pavillions (weather permitting) behind the church building at 6:30 - 8 pm. Childcare will be provided.

Park Play Date

We are meeting at the Thurston County Sports Complex Park at 11 am. There are picnic tables and a pavilion and plenty of grass so bring a lunch and stay a while. To get to the park take I-5 South and get off exit #111 (Marvin/Martin Rd). Turn left at the light onto Marvin. Continue past the shopping centers and turn left onto Steilacoom Rd (it's a light). The park is on your right. As you pull in you will go through the turn-about, follow it to the left. There are lots of baseball fields, drive past them and you will see the park on your right. It's a big playground and it has a walking path if you want to bring your stroller and stroll the park.

Park Play Date

Our awesome Sister Alexis N. knows some great parks that the kids can run and play while we get a chance to talk with our friends. It will be every Tuesday - close enough to Sunday to remember to go!! June 22 is at the Powderworks Park in DuPont. Across the street from Pioneer Middle School on Bob's Hollow Ln.

Welcome...

Sunday our new Relief Society Presidency was called...

President-- Rachel Westhoff
First Counselor -- Jamie C.
Second Counselor -- Mindi W.
Third Counselor -- Jamie P.
Secretary -- Amy S.

Please take a minute to introduce yourself to these wonderful sisters if you haven't had the chance to get to know them yet. They are anxious to serve the sisters of our ward. Let's all find ways to help them. Hey, I know... let's make June a 100% visiting teaching month!!!

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 mastery 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.

Feast Upon the Word

Time is running out! Our Ward pizza feast is on June 4. Do you have your scripture mastery scriptures memorized? If you need a list of them you can find them on the Book of Mormon bookmark found here. You can also pick one up from a bishopric member or a member of the RS presidency. Listed here are a few suggestions of ways to memorize, understand, and apply these scriptures. You can turn it into a game and make it fun!
