Service was the theme for the month of September and so the primary children stuffed teddy bears and fish for an orphanage in Peru. The primary leaders, namely Rachel Ream, cut out and sewed more than 50 bears and fish! The children loved to put the stuffing in and create birth certificates for each bear and fish. After being stitched close, and given a face/bow the stuffed friends were packed in a suitcase to go with Eric Kuhnen to Salt Lake City where he met with the organization in charge of the orphanage. It was a fun experience for all involved. I just thought the Relief Society sisters would enjoy hearing about the relief given by the children in the ward.
Also, I need to give a shout out for our Primary Program practice this Saturday at 8:00 am in the chapel! Parents, please bring your primary children so they can be comfortable with the chapel setting for our program the next day.
For other news, there are some stake primary activities come up which I've listed below.
November 10 - Stake Temple Trip for 11 year olds. 11:00 - 1:00, lunch will be served.
November 11 - Stake Priesthood Preview for 11 year old boys, 6:30 at the Annex.
