Hi Sisters!
To celebrate the birthday of Relief Society we would like every sister to write an expirience from their life. This can be an overwhelming process, so we are going to focus on only one small “slice” of our lives. Think of your life as a cake. We have been commanded to write our life histories, which can be very overwhelming, but we can do it a slice or, if necessary, a bite at a time.
Memoirs can be about many different experiences. Here are some examples of what you could write about:
- your relationship with Heavenly Father
-Conversion story
-How you gained a testimony of the Savior, Book of Mormon, Church, Joseph Smith…
-A trial
-A blessing
-A time you felt the spirit especially strong (remember these will be shared, so please keep sacred things sacred)
-Experiences serving in the church
Write as little or as much as you would like, but please write something.
If you would like help, Elizabeth Heath is available by phone or email. I have been trained to work on projects like these professionally, not that I have all the answers, but I will do what I can to help you. 801-663-5151 elizabeth.heath@asu.edu
Follow the Spirit, and let him bring things to your remembrance that you may have forgotten. You will be led if you prepare and put forth the effort. You will be blessed as you keep the Lord’s commandments.
During Connies lesson in Relief Society this past Sunday several sisters shared beautiful spiritual expieriences. This is exactly what we are looking for. So please just take the time to write them down. :)
This can become addicting…so prepare for a wonderful journey of remembrance and self-exploration.
Due Date: March 14 (but we will take them earlier) Please email them to Liz Heath or Susan Waggoner or hand them in on Sunday to Liz Heath or Hillary Bitter.
