Dear Sisters of the Highland West Stake,
 
You are invited to attend our Stake Relief Society Women’s Conference that will be held at our Stake Center on Saturday, March 17th. We invite mothers of graduating Seniors to bring their daughters.
 
Our Theme is “Look unto me in every thought; doubt not, fear not.” D&C 6:36
 
10:00 am—Keynote speaker: Janice Kapp Perry in the chapel
11:00 am—We will have a workshop/Panel Discussion in the chapel: [True or False: What Do You Think?...A practical way to create a more peaceful, joyful life...one thought at a time.]
12:00 noon—A lunch of soup, salad and rolls will be served in the cultural hall
12:00-2:00 pm—Service projects will be available to work on as well as an introduction to “Family Search”
 
Come for the entire event or for what your schedule allows.
 
March 17th is the 170th birthday of the Relief Society!
We want to celebrate in a big way by doing some service together. Besides having projects to work on that day, we have organized a way we can help with 6 or more refugee families that are living in the Salt Lake City area. They have come to the United States and have been given a place to live but usually have little or no supplies like pans, towels, dishes, adequate clothing, school supplies, toys etc. We will give you an opportunity to sign up for items that are needed. We would like you to bring those items to the Women’s conference on March 17th so we can deliver them to these families. We will have more information, a list of items needed, and a link to an online sign up on our blog. We invite you to involve your family in this project. Let them help you gather the items and tell them who they are for. The items can be new or clean, gently used items. This is a great opportunity to clean out things you no longer need but are still useful.
We are excited to have a blog as a means to give you information from our Stake as well as share ideas of service for individuals as well as Wards to do. Please bookmark our blog: http://hwssistertosister.blogspot.com/
 
With Love,
The Stake Relief Society Presidency
