Our unit is getting started slowly. We’re doing a number of mini-classes that include:
* Pruning/Gardening
* Beginning Internet (betcha can’t guess who’s teaching THAT one)
* Intermediate/Advanced Internet (Me again)
* Canning Jam
* Parenting Class
* Hair/Makeup
* Crochet (for edging burp rags, etc)and a bunch of others I can’t remember off the top of my head. :)
We’re usually holding just one of these per month, and it’s up to the teacher of the lesson to determine when she (or he) would like to hold it so that it can fit with the teacher’s schedule and hopefully those in the class.
We’re hoping to organize support groups for the single/divorced women in our unit and for the older women in the ward. Those groups will be responsible for coming up with ideas that will suit their needs.
We’ve also organized a babysitting swap for when sisters go Visiting Teaching, and may organize a playgroup, too.
Pruning and Gardening was last week and had an attendance of 6. I think those low-sounding numbers are to be expected for these types of activities. It’s taken a lot of work on the part of our Enrichment Counselor and Enrichment Leader to get stuff going, but I think eventually it will actually serve the needs of sisters better AND be less work for the presidency.
I hope we can get some of the less active sisters and non-member neighbors to come out for these activities to begin feeling the unique socilizing LDS women enjoy.
