Compassionate Service Message

Just a reminder from the compassionate service committee to try and set a service goal for something in family history this month. It can be as simple as writing in your journal, asking relatives for stories, or doing indexing! Also, service includes finding names to take to the temple, going to the temple to do work for the dead, watching family search tutorials on lds.org, and anything relating to finding out more about your ancestors. Good luck with your February service goals! You ladies are wonderful. :)

Saturday Activities

For those of you with January birthdays, don't forget to attend your wonderful birthday breakfast this Saturday! Yum Yum!



Also, Sherry Hu is receiving her endowment this Saturday on the 4:40 Session at the Provo Temple! 
If you are endowed, you are invited to attend the session and support her. We would love to see a great turnout from the ward. Try to get to the temple by 4pm to give yourself enough time to change and be in the chapel by 4:20pm.  This will be a wonderful experience, and even if you are new in the ward, it would be a great opportunity to meet her!
