Kate Swenson has a $10 couch available in April--contact her if you're interested! 

Are you interested in doing a special musical number in sacrament meeting? Because February is all kinds of open. Contact Aimee Mecham at 208-206-4441 if you're interested.

Visiting teaching assignments have changed! If you're not sure who you teach, you teaches you, or who your partner is, contact Kaylin McOmber.

Sarah Bridges has temple names! If you're headed to the temple in the next few weeks, contact her to do one of her names.

- MISCELLANY -

Our ward has an online employment forum! If you are looking for a job, or know of a job available, check it out here. (There's also a link above.)

Liz Chapman has officially published a book of poetry! She's working on getting copies available in a few places around Rexburg, but in the meantime, you can buy a copy here if you're interested. It will also be available on Amazon Kindle soon.

T-Bird Hartner has coordinated temple attendance. Every week in Relief Society, a clipboard will be passed around where you can sign up to attend an endowment session at the temple. You can go with friends, with T-Bird, or on your own, and she'll text you to remind you.

BYU-Idaho has an "Understanding Same Gender Attraction" group on campus. Those interested in attending meetings to show love and support and to gain greater understanding of their brothers and sisters are welcome. Talk to Liz about meeting times and places.

Are you available to babysit? We'd like to put together a babysitter contact sheet here on the blog, with names of those who can watch your kids! That way, young moms can just visit this site for babysitters. Comment on this blog if you'd like to be included as a potential babysitter, along with your availability. Because this is a public blog, we won't include phone numbers--just look folks up on the ward directory.

- SPIRITUAL THOUGHT -

"In this age of one hour dry cleaning and one minute fast food franchises, it may at times seem to us as though a loving Heavenly Father has misplaced our precious promises or He has put them on hold or filed them under the wrong name...When heaven's promises sometimes seem afar off, I pray that each of us will embrace these exceeding great and precious promises and never let go...God will remember you." 

-- Spencer J. Condie, Ensign November 2007
