Last Relief Society Activity

My calling in our ward for the past year  and a half has been serving on the Relief Society Activity Committee. I was in charge of my final activity two weeks ago and it was a great success. The theme was "Helpful Hints for Your Homemaking Bag of Tricks."

We had sisters sign up to share a homemaking skill with everyone in five minutes or less. This made up our program. We also had sisters sign up to bring their best "Go To" dish and recipe. This was our dinner for the evening. We provided strawberry lemonade and a dessert. The decorations were adorable. The leader of the committee recently got a silhouette machine and had fun trying it out. She loves hosting events and is well seasoned at creating a great atmosphere. The tips shared during the evening were very helpful, though I wasn't able to listen as closely as I would have liked since I had several responsibilities during the night.

We had gluten free tips, make your own laundry detergent tips, removing stains from clothes tips, how to make reusable snack bag tips, hanging picture tips, cleaning a toilet tips, keeping your house clean tips and many more. Thirty women were in attendance which was outstanding considering the last activity I was in charge of we had three come. I will miss working with all of the women on the committee, but am excited to serve in my new calling teaching Gospel Doctrine.
