Quote of the Week

"Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising which tempt you to believe that your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires courage."-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Quote of the Week

" No matter our age, circumstance, or abilities, each one of us can create something remarkable in his life.  David saw himself as a shepherd, but the Lord saw him as a  king of Israel.  Joseph of Egypt served as a slave, but the Lord saw him as a seer.  Mormon wore the armor of a soldier, but the Lord saw him as a prophet.  We are sons and daughters of an immortal, loving, and all-powerful Father in Heaven.  We are created as much from the dust of eternity as we are from the dust of the earth.  Everyone of us has potential we can scarcely imagine."
-Joseph B. Wirthlin

B's Baptism

Well Saturday March 19 was a big day!

Our very own Brittney was baptized!  It was a wonderful meeting.  Her brother was the one to preform the baptism which was really cool!  When Brittney came up out of the water and they hugged each other and it was probably the best moment ever, I totally got teary eyed!

Brittney we are all so proud of you! Thank you for being such an amazing girl and for deciding to get baptized! We love you!

Girl's Night

A group of us went down to Orem for B's baptism and didn't want to waste the opportunity for all of us to spend some time together! So we went to dinner at CPK and then out for doughnut's at Krispy Kreme's.  I thought it was a great night!

Dinner - sorry it's dark

Yummy doughnuts!

Cell Phones!

At our meeting on Wednesday we had TWO cell phone user's - so here is a picture of them as they serenaded us with "I'm a little teapot"

"Here is my handle"

"Here is my spout"

Chapter Pictures

This week we took the time to capture the beauty that is all around us in the chapter of Epsilon.  We took our semi-annual chapter pictures! The rain put a little bit of a damper on the whole night but we found a place to do our photoshoot and I am sure we looked beautiful.  I will post the pictures as soon as we get them!

"Do not look back and grieve over the past, for it is gone, and do not be troubled about the future, for it is not yet come.  Live in the present and make it so beautiful that it will be worth remembering."

Sisterhood Fireside

For those of you that missed the sisterhood fireside this past week, you REALLY missed out.  It was spectacular! By far one of the best firesides that I have ever been to.  Since most of you were not able to make it here is a short recap of what Emily Freeman spoke about.

We all need to draw closer to Christ.  We must do so in all holiness and we cannot keep anything back. As we go through the steps that Sister Freeman has given us, we will be able to grow closer to our Father in Heaven.  There are a few key items you need to remember as you come closer to Christ.
  1. Remember the special experiences of our life - as we take the time to reflect on the special experiences in our life we will be able to learn from them and grow
  2. Recognize the workings of the spirit - the workings of the spirit may be small but they will be life changing
  3. Work on your prayers - if you have not recieved an answer to your prayers in the last couple of days you need to fix the way you are saying your prayers
  4. Pray everyday for blessings - blessings are granted but many are conditional, meaning you have to ask Heavenly Father for them through prayer. Don't be afraid to seek blessings, He is always willing to give.
  5. Have Faith - "Having faith in the Lord means having faith in the Lord's timing" - Neal A Maxwell
Sister Freeman presented us with a challenge.  In the next 21 days she would like us to grow closer to the Lord.  She believes that we can do it, I believe that we can do it, and Heavenly Father believes that we can do it.  As sisters in Epsilon let's grow closer to Christ and help one another on the journey.

Service Activity

As a part of sisterhood week all of Lamda Delta Sigma helped color, cut and paste learning kits for schools around the state.  We had a good time doing crafts, chatting and spending time together! Here are a few photos of our girls working their little hands off!

Coloring Away
Yay for crafts!

Quote of the Week

Now Woody, he's been my pal for as long as I can remember. He's brave, like a cowboy should be. And kind, and smart. But the thing that makes Woody special, is he'll never give up on you... ever. He'll be there for you, no matter what.

Ice Skating With Delta

So my personal favorite part of being in a sorority is the exchanges - no offense to you lovely ladies but come on, there are boys involved in the exchanges! Who can blame me?

Well we had an awesome exchange with Delta last night.  We went ice skating at Steiner and I thought it was pretty fun! They were all so nice and talkative and not too bad looking! They even stepped in when Natasha hurt her ankle, her very own knights in shining armor! You have to love the guys in Delta!

Here are some pictures of our night! Enjoy!

Quote of the Week

"Sisterhood is many things. It's a warm smile on a cold and rainy day, a friendly hug, a cheerful hello... It's all that a good and lasting friendship is, only better. It's treasured. It's sacred. It's knowing that there will always be someone there for you. It's dreams shared, and goals achieved. It's counting on others and being counted on. It is real." - Anonymous
