Enrichment

My enrichment counselor and I got together last week to talk over some ideas for spring/summer for enrichment, and the quarterly enrichment meeting. I think we came up with some great things!
We're going to be making lap robes (little blankets that fit onto your lap, for watching TV, or great for those who are wheel-chair bound. These will be donated to a local nursing home, for a great service project!
We'll be taking a road trip to Old Sturbridge Village (http://www.osv.org/) in June for Wool Days!
We're looking into going to Shakespeare in the Park, a 4th of July fireworks get-together, and maybe even a minor league ball game this summer for families!
We're looking into doing a FHE packet group. If you aren't familiar with the LDS church, go to: http://http//www.lds.org/hf/fhe/welcome/0,16785,4210-1,00.html to read more about Family Home Evening. This group would be a great way for the sisters to get ideas for FHE.
For our quarterly meeting, we're having three great classes!
1. A Mother's Panel. We'll have 4 or 5 mothers from the ward on a panel, and the sisters in the class will be able to ask them parenting questions, to get ideas on how other women of the same faith handle the same issues that they are facing.
2. A bread class. The sisters who take this class will bake something, and get a packet with recipes to take home!
3. "Your Personal History in an Hour". This class will discuss writing your journal, and getting YOUR story recorded, and will include journal prompts, like "What is your favorite Christmas Memory?"


So, lots of stuff in the works! I'm so excited, and can't wait to see this all come to fruition! :) I really hope that these things we have planned will edify the sisters, and uplift them!
