Under The Umbrella of Self Reliance- January

Emergency preparedness : CAR KITS---

If you are planning on traveling this winter it is recommended you have an emergency car kit in your trunk. Suggested items are: flashlight, flares or reflected triangle, distress sign, telephone change, first aid supplies, basic tools, a fully charged cell phone. Other optional items could be: boots, hats, coat, gloves, jumper cables, kitty liter (for traction), ice scraper, blanket, water and some food. You can pack these any just about anything, a good bet is to buy a pre-assemble kit I believe Wal-Mart has one for under $25.00. Plan ahead, watch the weather, and be safe.

December Presidency Message

Christmas is a wonderful time of year. It is a season when there are more smiles, cheerful greetings, and acts of thoughtful kindness, than are found through the rest of the entire year. What is it that brings such love into our hearts, such joy into our lives? It is, of course, the spirit of Christmas. To understand the real meaning of the spirit of Christmas, we need only drop the last syllable, and it becomes the Spirit of Christ, who is the Savior and Redeemer of the world. As we contemplate the gifts we give this Christmas season, let us not forget about the gifts our Savior gave to us; His love, His service, and His life. Let us give back to Him as our prophet, Pres. Monson counsils, "Let us in our lives give to our Lord and Savior the gift of gratitude by living His teachings and following in His footsteps. It was said of Him that He 'went about doing good.' as we do likewise, the Christmas spirit will be ours." It is our hope that each of us will find the Spirit of Christ in out hearts and homes this Christmas season as we try to be more like Him.

With Love,
The Relief Society Presidency
