We started out our activity with a service project. Each time we meet, we will spend about 15 minutes working on a service project. The service project that we worked on will benefit the Ronald McDonald House. We made birthday cards that the residents will be able to use.
After our service project, we all took turns sharing what we brought in our paper bags. During this time, I realized what a fun bunch of girls are in our group. It was so fun to listen to the girls tell about themselves. In our group, we have silly bands collectors, singers, artists, readers, a scorpion hunter, a jewelry maker, a squeezie collector, athletes, and dancers. The girls are all so talented, and will all be beneficial to our group.
After we got to know the girls better, we talked a little about the Articles of Faith. The girls knew where they originated from, The Wentworth Letter. I also told a story about a boy who while traveling on a train, was able to share the Articles of Faith with a stranger. Ask the girls, to see if they remember, how the Articles of Faith became scripture (they were accepted in 1880 at General Conference, by the members raising their hand in common consent, as scripture).
These are the cute birthday cards the girls made.
I love how each one is different and unique.
