We're Now on Facebook!

Sisters,

According to Elder Nelson in October's General Conference, "Now in this day of the Internet, there are new and exciting ways you can do missionary work. You can invite friends and neighbors to visit the new mormon.org Web site. If you have blogs and online social networks, you could link your sites to mormon.org."

In our continued efforts to keep everyone apprised of activities, needs, and other things pertaining to Relief Society, we've decided to stay a little current and get a facebook page. We know you're on it and if not, now's the time. So click the link in the left column and like us. This will do many things, but most importantly you will be notified of upcoming activities every time we post it. So join us in the online fun.

In addition to the above comment about the positive uses of the internet, Elder Nelson also issued the following challenge: " On mormon.org you can create your own personal profile. Each profile includes an expression of belief, an experience, and a testimony."

Whether you have a family blog, a personal website, or simply a facebook page, use this wonderful technology to share the gospel! How will you use it to bless your life and the lives of others?

In Case You're Interested

FYI - Sept 10

This Tursday at 6pm, the Fayetteville Public Library is offering a free showing of a 2009 documentary called Fresh. Here is a part of the synopsis from the movie's website:

FRESH celebrates the farmers, thinkers and business people across America who are re-inventing our food system. Each has witnessed the rapid transformation of our agriculture into an industrial model, and confronted the consequences: food contamination, environmental pollution, depletion of natural resources, and morbid obesity. Forging healthier, sustainable alternatives, they offer a practical vision for a future of our food and our planet.

Total running time: 72 minutes

I've posted a link to the library's page, the movie's website, and a movie trailer on my blog if you are interested.
