Tri-Stake Single Adult Sacrament Meeting

November 10 
These sacrament meetings are held on the second Sunday of each month at 6pm in the Monument building (5600 Monument Ave). The next one is on Novemember 10th. The service will be followed by a “Linger Longer” and participants are encouraged to bring some “Snacks to Share” during this activity. This does not replace sacrament meeting, but provides singles with new opportunity to participate in sacrament services and to fellowship with other singles in a comfortable environment.
