Create

If you missed our HFPE Meeting Tuesday night or if you were there and would like to watch the video I showed again, here it is. I LOVE this video. It reminds us that we are all creative and have talents.

Over the last few weeks I had the RS sisters fill out a sheet containing the talents and gifts they think each sister has. I handed out everyone's list to them at the meeting. If you missed it please see Sara for your personal list. I thought it was so neat how unique and special each of us are.

Our hearts and prayers are with the West family. There will be a short memorial service for Dawn this Saturday at 10:00am at the church followed by a private family graveside service. Please respect the family and keep them in your thoughts and prayers.

Jennifer Theetge is collecting photos and written memories of Dawn to compile into a remembrance book for the children.
