ERS Christmas Party Tonight!

Please gather with us for our Evening Relief Society Christmas Dinner tonight!  We will celebrate the love our Savior and Heavenly father have given us and it will be a time to hold and heal each other as sisters.  If you can, bring a wrapped scarf for a scarf exchange and any donations for the Shaws to give on their annual trip to Mexico.  They need anything used to make clothes, quilts and pillows, and will also accept money.  Please come and share this night with us even if you don't have a scarf or donation. 

Christmas Donations for Mexico

The Shaw family will, again, be traveling to Mexico for Christmas to give donations to those in need.  Our hearts and prayers will be with them in their travels as they share their love and goodwill for the Mexican people. 
The Shaws will accept donations until December 18th or you can bring donations to the Evening Relief Society Christmas Party at 7:00 on December 11.  They will accept money or any items needed to make clothes and quilts, such as: 
needles and thread       fabric
yarn       scissors     pillow forms
batting    elastic for skirts and slips
buttons    zippers
duffle bags      suitcases

Thanks everyone for being patient while I learn this blog stuff.  I still have a lot to learn, so I also appreciate any feedback. Next I need to learn to email it to you!
I can say, with surety, that being set apart makes miracles happen!! Thanks to the people who put this together before me.  Your work, dedication and creativity are true gifts!
I will periodically update and add to it throughout the month, so please keep checking the site if you need to followup on something.  I am also happy for any suggestions you might have.  Like the Pinecrest Sisters on facebook (a brilliant idea!), I want this to be a site for everyone to make comments on (but for now, call me with your comments until I figure out how to make the site accept comments).
