NoT a LoT...

Okay, so not a lot went on this last week,
but the weather did turn cold...

and the dog got a new sweatshirt.
 
And we were able to go to the temple with our youth
(which is always a good thing.)


Right now,
I'm working on our Ward's "Day of Service".

It commemorates the 75th. anniversary of the
Church of Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints
Welfare Program.

Remember in April when Elder Eyring asked every ward or branch
in the Church to organize a day of service in behalf of the needy in
their community?

Well, families and individuals in our ward are donating
Thanksgiving food baskets for our community Social Services.

It's fun.
Just about 50 families and individuals are excitedly planning
and putting together baskets.
That means 50 needy families that possibly wouldn't have had a Thanksgiving,
now will!
(If you'd like to join in, you surely can.  It's easy.  Decide what foods you like to eat on Thanksgiving Day--no perishables, open containers, or homebaked goods, however.  That kind of makes it even easier.  Put together a container to feed a family from 2 to 8 people.  They're due at the Churchill County Social Services Office by Monday, November 21st.)
