This was a thoughtful gift handed out to the women at church for Mother’s Day and I’ve also seen it done with a Christmas towel / theme as well. It’s an idea worth sharing since it’s simple and costs very little. Copy and paste the thoughtful words below into a document with a graphic of your choosing. (I can’t give you the one seen here because the rights to the illustration don’t belong to me.) This was printed on half of an 8.5 x 11 sheet. And tied up neatly with the towel. "At first glance it is easy to look at a towel as a most ordinary object. Have you ever stopped to think that for thousands of years, the towel has been used for many wonderful purposes? For example, the mother who wipes the tears of a child, the physician who binds the wounds of a patient, or the woman in her home wiping her hands as she moves from task to task. Perhaps the most significant use of the towel happened over two thousand years ago when our Savior, only hours before He hung on the cross, took an ordinary towel in His loving hands and dried the feet of His disciples. This simple, loving act personifies the selflessness and loving service we seek to give during our lives. It illustrates that an ordinary thing like a towel, in the right hands, and with a giving heart, can lighten another’s load. As with every action performed by the Savior on this Earth, His act of service reminds us that simple day-to-day-kindnesses are the Savior’s way to bless and comfort. This towel is given with love and with the hope you will do works of goodness with it as the Savior did so many years ago." Note: This thought has been shared so often online, I can’t find the original author. If you know who it is, please notify me, I’d like to give proper credit.

Despite the storm brewing in the sky that night, we had a GREAT turnout for our May Relief Society meeting! The theme was "Rock, Paper, Scriptures." We focused on ways to come closer to the Savior and "hold to the rod." Carrie opened up the evening with some personal experiences and a wonderful video emphasizing the importance of daily scripture study in our lives. We then split into three classes and got to take part in some great discussions. ROCK Teryl told us about her grandfather and the house he built one rock at a time. It was a three year process but the results were a house with a strong foundation and walls that would stand through the years. Even after the house was vandalized, it still maintained its structure and has been fixed up and still stands today. She tied this in with our own lifelong efforts to build upon the rock of our Redeemer. Helaman 5:12 states: And now, my sons, remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall. PAPER Brianne led a great discussion on journaling and how it blesses our lives-- and the lives of our posterity! We talked about different kinds of journals we can keep: scrapbooks online journals (someone suggested we all try out www.ldsjournal.com !) good old fashioned pen and paper journals family journals scripture journals gratitude journals blogs Not only can we benefit from looking back at past journal entries, but our future children and grandchildren may be able to gain something from them as well. If you think about it, the scriptures themselves are record keeping and "journaling" of ancient prophets. So, in a way, our personal journals we keep can be like our own "scripture" we are writing for our future children and grandchildren to learn and grow from. SCRIPTURES (Holding to the rod): Kimberly lassoed us up and took us on a little obstacle course to drive home her point. Her instructions to us were only this: "Hold on to the rope and follow me." So the group was all walking along clumped together in the loop of the rope. We thought getting up the narrow stairway to the stage was difficult... ...but that seemed like nothing when we realized we hand to climb under a small table!!! Kimberly just kept repeating "Just hold on to the rope and follow me." Most groups went through the whole thing trying to stay inside the loop of the rope. This last group made the realization as they were trying to cram under the table that Kimberly never said they had to stay in the loop. They just had to hold onto the rope! They realized that it would be much easier if they untied the loop and just each held onto it in a straight line. This was a great object lesson that brought us closer together as sisters (literally). We discussed the point of this exercise and applied it to our own journeys in life. Sometimes we get too caught up in doing things a certain way or a way we think it should be done or even the way that MOST people do it. But, that isn't always the most effective way. Ultimately, our instruction is to "hold to the rope and follow me"-- or hold to the rod and follow Him. We need to try to get rid of those distractions or unimportant things that sometimes make it so much more difficult than it needs to be! We shared different things we personally do to bring ourselves closer to Christ and our Heavenly Father-- different ways we have found to do things that work well for US personally. Whether it was methods of scripture study or ways to get rid of distractions in life. After these awesome messages we joined back together to close our meeting. Carrie invited each of us to take a rock from the table in the back of the room and write on it something that was a "spiritual rock" in our lives. Either a favorite scripture or quote. We can display these rocks somewhere as a reminder of having that strong foundation in our lives. And... of course we enjoyed some tasty refreshments together! We had fruits and veggies and dips. Our new friend Ann even brought some delicious Pilipino dishes for us to try! A tasty sesame noodle dish and some potstickers. We always have a great time getting together as sisters and visiting together. And tonight was no different.

I had to throw together a Relief Society Activity super fast, and this is what we did. It turned out AWESOME!!! I took my ideas from these two blogs; http://pininspired.blogspot.com/2012/05/walk-day-in-my-shoes-rs-activity.html http://www.somewhatplanned.com/2015/09/lds-church-in-her-shoes-relief-society-night/ This was our fun invitation to get the sisters excited! Our stake at that time was gathering donations for Safety Net so we encouraged the sisters to bring a pair of shoes to donate, and any other donations they had. We received a ton of great donations! The dessert for this event was just WAY to fun! We made high heel cupcakes! I am a huge fan of NOFADE cupcake liners. Totally worth the extra cents. You can find these at Walmart, Hobby Lobby, Party stores... I decided to make 2 kinds of cupcakes. Chocolate Oreo and Strawberry Lemonade. So easy. Just make the cake like normal, but add a pudding mix! YUM! Oreo Frosting: 1/2 cup shortening 1/2 cup butter Pinch of Salt 5 Tbsp of milk 1 tsp vanilla 5 cups powdered sugar 1/4 cup Karo corn syrup Cream together shortening and butter. Add pinch of salt and vanilla. Gradually add powdered sugar and milk. Blend well. And corn syrup last, beating an additional 3-4 minutes. Then add finely crushed oreos. Add to your taste! Spread or pipe onto cupcakes. Strawberry Lemonade Frosting 1 cup real butter 1/2 cup seedless Strawberry Jam (You can use seeds, totally a preference) 3-4 cups powdered sugar Mix all ingredients together until fluffy. Spread or pipe onto cupcakes. Add lemon zest to the top of cupcakes for the lemon flavor! We put them together at the church on the table they would be displayed on, because they are fragile. You don't want to have to move them a bunch. Simply frost a simple edge around a Milano Cookie . Found at most grocery stores. cut your Pirouette Waffers in half but at a 45 degree angle. Simply frost the cupcake to your liking. Then place the Milano cookie in the back at an angle, then put some frosting on the 45 degree angle of the Pirouette Waffer and stick that to the bottom of the Milano cookie. It really is so simple, and so cute, and everyone LOVED them! The night of the event, we set up two rows of chairs in a semi-circle, had a few fun high heels next to the shoe quotes, and then the fun high heel cupcake display. We gathered together, sang "Faith in Every Footstep" I gave a little tiny talk about not judging others, walking a mile in their shoes, "what if her story, were my story." Then everyone came up and shared their own shoe story. (Those that wanted to. Most people did!) Then we ate fruit, and high heel cupcakes!!! I thought it turned out to be a super fun night. Some of the stories brought the spirit, others just made you laugh. Stories of shoe being worn for temple service, river rafting trips, a husband buying them after noticing a wife admiring them... so many fun stories. A fun fun night! Here are some of the printables I made to use that night;
