So recently, between a traveling hubby, Crazy Children, and a New Job, I have been so grateful for the opportunity to do some Relief Society Work, it truly is sweet, and brightens my soul, just like candy does, but a lot healthier. 🙂
Our ward is preparing for a big humanitarian open house, this is one Humanitarian Baby Blanket (My great Friend Diane helped me to tie, while the kids played, Thanks again Diane!)
Do you like the cat material? Truman chose it out, and Tucker choose out the back to match. I guess it could’ve been worse–BUT I had a vision of a darling blanket (Pink, because I never get to buy Pink, and it was going to be girly, and darling). HONESTLY, I am sure whoever receives it will be grateful for the warmth it gives. That is the most important part, right?
Relief Society Welcome Packets for the new sisters who have moved in:
Relief Society Hankerchiefs for the YW transitioning to RS:
Also, we had an Enrichment activity based around ‘Relief’: Preparing now, so that when the turmoil hits, we’ll be prepared. It was based around our Stake Goals, We gave them oil to take home to place in there 72 hour kits, I was in charge of filling all of these little containers, Toph consecrated them.
I am grateful for a creative outlet, but I am even more grateful for a creative outlet that blesses other lives. Mostly I am grateful to be a part of the work.

Wow, Emily, that is great. Last weekend at youth confrence the stake RS president showed up a video about the church’s humanitarian efforts. It is truly awe inspiring to see what so many hands can do. I especially love helping the children through out the world. We are so blessed in this country. Keep up the good work.
Wow Emily Ann- Good work. Looks fantastic. I like the idea of an enrichment about “relief.” Hope you don’t mind if our ward uses some of your great ideas too :).
