Our Dear Sister, Marilyn Sheppard

Our dear Sister Marilyn Sheppard passed away this last Monday. She will be dearly missed.
Sister Sheppard was a wonderful friend an example to all that knew her and a truly beautiful soul. She was an ever shining example of faith, love and service.
We can testify to you, without reservation, that our Father in Heaven and our Savior deeply love Marilyn. We testify to you that our savior does have the power to redeem each of us. He has given us all the most wonderful and precious gift of eternal life.
While we will miss Marilyn and we grieve for her family and loved ones, we are comforted in knowing that she is with our Father in Heaven and is no longer subject to the pains and frailties of mortality. May this serve as a blessing and a comfort to us all at this time.
Please know that we are available if any of you should need anything at all.


Sister Marilyn Sheppard's viewing will be held on Saturday, November 27th from 10-10:30am at the Stake Center on Birch ave.
Her funeral will follow the viewing at 10:30am.

SUPER SATURDAY & RELIEF SOCIETY CHRISTMAS LUNCHEON

Ladies, It is nearly time for SUPER SATURDAY! If you have not yet had the chance to check out the crafts we have available for this please stop by the table outside the Relief Society room this coming Sunday and check it out.
This year for SUPER SATURDAY we are placing a lot of emphasis on keeping things simple and provident. The crafts that we have planned are all fairly inexpensive and easy to do. They are crafts that can be made using things that you may possibly have around your home anyway.
In addition to the crafts that you can sign up to make we are also going to have some crafts that are free to everyone. We will be making some paper boxes you can use in your gift giving or for a fun Christmas count down. You can also try your hand at some tree decorations made with paper or using old Christmas cards.
We are combining this SUPER SATURDAY craft day with our Relief Society Christmas Luncheon. Even if you do not enjoy crafts please join us for lunch and some visiting.
We look forward to seeing all of you there on Saturday December 4th at the Northside Building beginning at 11am and running until 3pm.
The Young Women are invited and encouraged to attend as well.
Child Care will be provided.
