1. It was lovely to see Gail (Rach's mum) visiting as well as Lyn (we hardly need to welcome her any more as she is such a regular - and looking so gorgeous and sparkly at the moment!)
2. Not a lot of announcements today. However Miriam has found a massive food storage bargain with large tins of apples and apricots (about 3 kg I think) going for $3 and $4 down at Cygnet. Speak to Miriam if you are interested.
3. Also Piret gave Rachel copies of an article out of the Australian newspaper that was very interesting about preparing for a flu pandemic and the type of foods that would be appropriate to store for 10 weeks (almost the counsel we have been given to have 12 weeks -or three months supply). Well worth reading, please see Rach if you would like a copy. Anna also had some spare copies of the excellent article out of the current Ensign regarding food storage so if anyone needs a copy for those they visit teach or a friend please see Anna in the library.
4. For 5 minute music Diana spoke about the origin of hymn singing - very interesting, I had never even thought of when people first starting singing hymns in church!
5. Piret led us in the lesson today entitled Missionary Service: A Holy Calling, a Glorious Work. Here's a quote from the lesson "Do not be discouraged on account of the greatness of the work; only be humble and faithful...therefore inasmuch as you are to be instrumental in this great work, He will endow you with power, wisdom, might and intelligence, and every qualification necessary.."
6. We missed lots of beautiful faces in Relief Society today. We pray for you all and hope that you know we love you and if we can help you in any way please let us know. Hope to see you next week.
