December Enrichment...

Hi Sisters,

Our next enrichment which will be on Tuesday 4th December starting at 6.30pm.  It will be a night full of christmas crafts, food and lots of laughs!

I've attached the flyer for your information and a photo of the two crafts (advent calendar or ornaments), which you can make on the night.  We will have sign up sheets on Sunday for you or if you won't be able to sign up on Sunday you can let me know your preferred craft via email and I will pass onto Desiree, who is organising the materials for the night.

Please note: 

Ornaments: Print outs of Christ and names of Christ will be available on the night for you to stick in the frames or you can bring in your own family photos/images (make them 5cm in diameter).  You will be spray-painting the frames in your choice of colour (gold, silver or white) and attaching ribbons.

Advent Calendar: The calico material and cotton will be provided, if you would like to use different fabric to make it a little more fancy then please bring some of your own and any embellishments you wish (e.g buttons, ribbon etc).  

Optional: For both crafts you can bring in branches and spray-paint them on the night

If you have a sewing machine, please bring it along, the more sewing machines the better, and quicker the calendars will be to make.  Also please bring a pair of scissors with you (scissors are needed for both crafts).

If you can't make the whole week we ask that you please try and make it on Friday as this is the day our Ward is focusing on having the most in attendance.

"I urge our people everywhere, with all of the persuasiveness of which I am capable, to live worthy to hold a temple recommend, to secure one and regard it as a precious asset, and to make a greater effort to go to the House of the Lord and partake of the spirit and the blessings to be had therein."

—Gordon B. Hinckley
