RS-2 September Activity



Visiting Teaching Workshop

"A sister in this Church has no other responsibility outside of her family that has the potential to do as much good as does visiting teaching." -Julie B. Beck


We had such a great night! Each of the RS Presidency gave presentations on over coming the road blocks of Visiting Teachings which involved many of the sisters' participation, and we watched a short video clip from General RS President, Sister Julie B. Beck. There were decorations of small road signs & caution tape, and we had a big dinner of baked potatoes, broccoli, cheese topping & salad.

RS-2 August TLC


Temple, Lunch & Conversation

We watched the Joseph Smith video & then walked through the exhibit of paintings on loan to the visitor center. The paintings were beautiful and featured many LDS historical landmarks & temples as the sacred grove in winter, the Salt Lake Temple with a huge U.S. flag hung on it's exterior & many others. 

To view works by the artist, please visit:  Al Rounds.com

We also had a fantastic picnic lunch together & enjoyed the shade! If possible please come to TLC each month with us:) We have a great time together and love to visit the Temple!
