Points of Light



The Relief Society Sisters of the East Stake are invited to become “a point of light” to one of the Young Women in our Stake.  If you choose to participate we would like you to create something special with one of the Young Women in our Stake in mind.  If you crochet you could make them a scarf or a hat. If you sew you could make them a scripture tote or handbag.  If you embroider you might make them a pair of pillowcases.  If you read you might include a book that has meant something to you in your life.  If you love music you might include a CD of your favorite kind of music. Most important we would like you to include a note to a Young Woman in our Stake telling them how special they are and how you have thought of them as you prepared this gift.  In the note please include your name and address.  The Young Women will have an opportunity at Camp to write a thank you note.

We would ask that you wrap your gift and get it to the person who is helping us in your Ward (Christy L.) by July 18th .   Each Young Woman will have the opportunity to come to the kitchen at Camp and do some service by helping prepare or clean up a meal.  As a part of their service they will be given a gift from the Sisters in the East Stake with a note telling them how wonderful they are.  If you have any questions please send an email to lizchidester@cox.net
