Relief Society and Young Women Activity
7pm, Wednesday, August 14
Come enjoy an evening of crafts, good food, and great company! We will be making fabric flowers that can be attached to flip flops, hair pieces, clothing and more. Don't forget to stop by the food class to assemble a tasty treat! The treats are healthy arrangements that kids should enjoy.
Even if you do not like crafts, or food, (what is not to like about food?) please come and bring your teenage daughters. It is a great opportunity to mingle with the other women in Relief Society and Young Women.
Nursery will be provided.
