Color Run

Sister Vogt, Sister Clemente, Sister Seeley, Sister Eiband, Sister Manning, and Sister Gropp all participated in the Color Run this weekend.  One of Sister Seeley's Personal Progress projects involves training for the race and we were all glad to be there and support her. 

PATIENCE

Thank you girls for all of your participation in today's lesson on PATIENCE!
I just wanted to come and post the CHALLENGES for this week.  I encourage you to pick at least one of the below suggestions from Robert C. Oaks (member of the Presidency of the Seventy) in your pursuit of  developing the Divine Virtue of PATIENCE! 

1. Read each of the scriptures in the Topical Guide listed under the topic “patience” and then ponder Christ’s patient examples.
   
2. Evaluate ourselves to determine where we stand on the patience continuum. How much more patience do we need to become more Christlike? This self-assessment is difficult. We might ask our spouse or another family member to help us.
   
3. Become sensitive to the examples of patience and of impatience that occur around us every day. We should strive to emulate those individuals we consider to be patient.
   
4. Recommit each day to become more patient, and be certain to keep our selected family member involved in our patience project.

Have fun this week and remember all of the wonderful personal and scriptural examples we shared and testified today of PATIENCE! 

love you all!
-Sister Vogt

Upcoming Personal Progress Activity

Christmas is right around the corner, and I've found a family that is in need. They have been out of the country for three years working on schooling and just returned to the United States. They had to leave almost everything they had behind to fly home. The father is trying to now get a job, so they are living with there in laws and they have six kids. Here's where the beehives come into play, I thought it would wonderful to make gifts for the family for Christmas. At our Personal Progress activity this coming Wednesday the 10th, we are going to be sewing two rag quilts for the two oldest of the six kids. I would love help planning this activity and putting it all together. These are some of the ways this project could be used in your Personal Progress as a project:

Individual Worth- carry out a project to improve the living situation of someone in need.

Divine Nature-develop a skill you could use in your future home (sewing).

Good Works- serve others by making gifts for those in need.

Integrity- having integrity means keeping your commitments. Identify and keep your commitments to others as you participate as a member of a team or organization or in a leadership position in your community.

Please call or e-mail Sister wing if you would like to make this one of your projects. 968-3111 or sosiouxmeto@msn.com
