The Blessings of Family History

Last week we were joined by two new sisters to the ward. Sister  Regina Pangerl   has moved back into their home near   Alicia Call Peterson   after being in the Apache Park ward for several years. Sister   Cherie Hammond Bruggeman   is in the process of moving to Arizona with her family from Idaho. She is Brother Brad Hammond's sister and they are currently staying with them until they find a home. We are excited to have both of these families join us. Sister Amber Esplin from Texas was visiting today and is a potential new ward family member since they put an offer on a home in our ward boundaries. Fingers crossed it works out for them. I noticed   Leslie Winward Wright 's mom was also visiting with us today but they are returning home tomorrow. Sister  Rachel Terry Thomas  showed today that she is equally talented at leading a discussion as she is at leading our ward choir. Through her guidance we had a wonderful lesson on the blessings...

Learn to Listen and Listen to Learn

I have been a bit behind in posting about our relief society lessons so I am going to do a little combining of last weeks and this weeks lessons as they both involved ministering.  Today our numbers were few but because we have had several new sisters move in over the past couple of months, we took the opportunity to get to know each other a little better by stating our name and sharing a favorite vacation spot. I know this will make the post long but I'm going to include this little activity to help all of us learn about each other. (And let's face it....when do I ever post a short post anyways!) Kathy Ivers--Hawaii for anniversary trip;  Diane Doyle Broderick --ID or Seattle where married kids are;  Kristin Collins --Lake Powell for family trip and Fiji for couple trip;  Becky King -anywhere!;  Donise Sarager Price --no favorites, she doesn't have a favorite child either! :)-- Mary Call --even though from England and it is beautiful there she loves Switze...
