Happy Birthday, Relief Society!

This post comes to us from Alkali Creek Ward who held their

Relief Society Birthday Celebration on March 10.

Our theme was "We Are Many But We Are One" The goal of the evening was to help the sisters realize that they belong to the largest organization of women in the world. Because it is a world wide organization, we as sisters come from all different kinds of backgrounds, but we all have one thing in common are faith. We started off the evening with dinner. We had Malyasian Chicken, Greek Salad with pita bread, and a Swedish rice pudding (oatmeal), and dessert was apple pie (American).

Each table was decorated with items from different countries.

We had a matching game at each table. It was a list of temples. The pictures of the temples were hanging in the room and the sisters were to match the names to the picture. Harder than you think.
Then we had a slide show presentaion of sisters around the world. We spotlighted 4 sisters in particular who live in other parts of the world. We had sisters contact these ladies and get their testimonies to share with us. It was very enlightening and wonderful to hear their stories of faith and dedication to the church.

We then closed singing a medley of Sisters in Zion together.

Thank you, Alkali Creek, for sharing your party with us!
