Stake Temple Day
Our Stake Temple Day is on Saturday, May 25th. We would like to invite all members to plan now to join us that day at the Temple. While there will not be an organized meeting this time, this is still a special day set aside for our stake to visit the Temple together. Many wards and branches may be designating certain times to attend endowment sessions together, as well as arranging for car pooling, etc. Please check with your ward leadership on their plans for that day. As this day is fast approaching, please ensure that your recommend is current or meet with a member of your Bishopric/Branch Presidency to work on obtaining a current recommend.

March 23rd Relief Society Women's Conference
Join your Relief Society Sisters from all over our stake on March 23, 2013 at the Stake Relief Society’s Women’s Conference “Growing”. Choose 4 of 7 mini-classes to attend and “grow” into a more perfect you.
Registration begins at 8:30.
Classes begin at 9:00.
Lunch served at 12:15.
No nursery
Presenting some insight into the nature of God—a God who loves us and wants us to succeed, who fashioned the earth as a “place of human ascent, not exile, who has the desire to bring the whole human family home again”.
This will be a class on gospel influenced parenting. With so many ideas in our world, about what makes a good parent, many of us are confused about how to discipline and how to parent our children. We will ask and answer the question "how does Heavenly Father parent us"? Using that awareness and the scriptures, we will identify present day parenting skills that will help strive to match our Heavenly Father's parenting style.
Have you ever wanted to have a more radiant, glowing skin? This class will teach you how to more effectively cleanse you face, the differences between pharmaceutical and store bought products as well as the benefits of exfoliates and moisturizers. Handouts will be given on ways to do facials at home.
Tai Chi is a gentle exercise that is often referred to as meditation in motion. It is a powerful form of therapy that allows the mind and the body to express themselves while enabling the spirit to discover itself. It improves health, increases energy, reduces stress, expands patience, induces relaxation, and leads to serenity.
There is nothing more comforting than a warm quilt and nothing could express a more comforting love than a handmade quilt. For centuries women have gathered around quilts to create something uniquely beautiful and necessary for survival. This class will teach the skill of setting up quilts on frames and then tying the quilts. A handmade quilt is a heartfelt gift and a loving act of service for someone. Come and learn the wonderful skill of quilt tying.
A beginning sewing class that allows you to have fun while learning some simple skills. Show off to your friends the tote bag you made. Carry it as a forever reminder that you really can do what you thought you couldn't. Material provided. Class will take 2 sessions.
This class will talk about the who,what,when,how and why getting organized can be a great blessing in your life. We will talk about how making a few changes can change your life for the better and how to manage all the paper and tasks in your life, as well as learning about some tools and resources that are available to you.

Knitted Baby Cap Patterns
The stake has been getting a lot of requests for the baby cap patterns used in the September Humanitarian Day of Service. If you are interested, you can get started on the batch of hats we are going to donate this upcoming September.
Please find sites for hats. If knit in the round, I go to double point needles when it gets hard to decrease. I use the shortest circular needles I can find meaning the space between both points are short. Look over all to get an idea of what you want to do. If you all want to make lots of hats then the directions I wrote and the YouTube below it is the best to do.

Use size 6 or 8 needles. Cast on 30 stitches.
Pattern: Knit one row, purl one row, knit one row. Repeat 24 times (72 rows total). Bind off.
With yarn needle, draw one long edge of knitting together. Sew short edges together and add pompon on top.
