Enrichment Mid-week Activity - Sew Cool

We have a fun mid-week Enrichment activity in our ward about once a month. It is called "Sew Cool" (yes, a funny pun). Sisters gather at the church to work on their personal sewing projects. Experienced seamstresses are available to give advice. People can bring their own sewing machines or share. Sisters also provide their own fabric and supplies.

This month they are concentrating on sewing on all those pesky Cub Scout and Scouting badges.

Another fun idea is doing Humanitarian projects or making quilts.

Enrichment Night - "Best Kept Secrets"

We had a fun Enrichment night in our ward last night. The theme was "Best Kept Secrets."



We started out the night with a light dinner in the gym. We had a big salad with chicken, strawberries, toasted almonds, etc. and rolls. They served sherbet with a cute cookie for dessert.



Then we moved to the RS room for a great lesson. After the lesson, they put on the music to Mission Impossible and showed a homemade quick video with one of the ladies dressed up in secret mission attire. She said gave a clever little intro and ended with "Your mission, should you choose to accept it...." and then we each took turns sharing tips and things that we have learned. We learned tips on household things, education, food storage, kids, grandkids, healthy & beauty, etc. It was a very fun and interesting evening and I was glad I attended.

This could probably be adapted to be a YW activity as well.
