Relief Society Announcements



RELIEF SOCIETY TEMPLE DAYS
Sister Beth Moxley has heard from a number of our sisters that they would like to attend the temple more often.  So let's do it together! Beth would like to plan one day a month to go up to the Temple and anyone who feels they would like to join her is welcome.  It's a zero pressure activity.  If you have the desire and availability, she would love to have you join her. If not this month, then perhaps another month will work out for you!  Beth is going this Friday, May 3rd, for the 11:30AM endowment session. She will leave Colfax at  9:45AM and can take up to five passengers. Call Beth at 509-397-0297 if you would like to join her!
