April's Visiting Teaching

The end of the month is fast approaching. This means finals, graduation, and internships are coming up quick. If you can, get your visiting teaching done as soon as possible in order to make sure you get to visit with each of your sisters.

This month's message is on keeping our temple covenants. You can read, print, and download the message here

Don't forget to report to your supervisor!

Weekly Announcements

Hello sisters! I hope you've been having a great Monday. 

First, yesterday we got some bittersweet news. Our bishopric has been reorganized, and Bishop Mottishaw was released. We are so grateful to him and to Sister Mottishaw for the years of service and support that they have given us. We are sad to see them go. However, Bishop Hansen has been called to be our new bishop, and we are looking forward to getting to know him and his wife, Sister Hansen. 

This Wednesday, April 24th, we will be celebrating the Relief Society's birthday! This activity will be held at our ward building in the RS room from 7pm-9pm. If you signed up to bring food, please don't forget! Also, we will be doing manicures, so bring your favorite colors to share! 

The book club is reading The Secret Life of Bees this month. The day and time of their next meeting will be announced soon. 

For those interested in making maxi skirts, Heather sent out an email with the pattern and instructions. If you didn't receive this email, please let her know. 

I think that's it for this week. If you have any announcements you'd like to put here on the blog, please email me at rs23rdward at gmail dot com.

Welcome Sisters!

Here it is, our brand new Relief Society blog! 

As Sisters takes it name from two Latter-day Saint hymns. First, from the title and first line of the hymn As Sisters in Zion. This beautiful song is about coming together as women to build Zion, to comfort and strengthen, to cheer and bless. Second,  a lesser-known hymn, We Meet Again As Sisters, speaks about coming together to worship, help others, and gain exaltation. 


This is the purpose of this blog - to come together as sisters of the Provo Married Student 23rd ward and uplift and encourage each other. Here we can share important news and information, read spiritual thoughts, and become united as daughters of God.
