Relief Society service
PAGO PAGO, AMERICAN SAMOA
Each unit in the four stakes here celebrated the Relief Society organization through service recently.
For example, the Mesepa 1st and 2nd wards traveled to Western Samoa to the Apia Samoa Temple where they delivered a donation of towels and shower curtains to the Patron House. Besides the service, they also were blessed to watch Two sisters in their wards entered the temple for the first time.
Members of the Aua 2nd Ward donated a sign so visitors and new members can easily find the way to their chapel which is located in the middle of the community.

Histories provided
DOUGLAS, GA.
Members of the Douglas Georgia Stake worked during the past year to provide a history for every ward in the stake. The books contain four areas of interest: a history of the ward, missionaries in the field, returned missionaries and published news articles about the ward. Every book also contains a picture of former and present bishops.
Young women in the stake covered the books with fabric or other decorations, making each book unique.
Many favorable comments were heard as the books were displayed - along with another book on the history of the stake - at a recent stake conference.
