- JUNE HUME
Sister Hume is moving into Lady Allum Retirement Village. Please feel free to visit her anytime after Thursday, March 1st. Be sure to ring 488 2900 before dropping in to make sure the time you plan to visit is convenient for June. Also it would be helpful to take with you a needle and thread as Sister Hume needs to have "Name Labels" stitched to all of her clothing. It would be a quick activity that would really help her out while you have a chat.
- FACEBOOK
Our Relief Society has a new facebook page, be sure to check it out and add any fun photos of activities, etc. Click the link below to "like" the page.
- HOUSING
One of our ward investigators Catherin Zhao she wants help from us to arrange a home stay family for her 15 year old son Frank. Frank is currently attending Glenfield college.
The family should treat Frank as a family member and would like to invite him to attend family home evening and takes him to church on Sunday. Frank also asks for internet connection and a private room. The family needs to provide 3 meals for him (simple breakfast and lunch). Ideally the family is on the bus route to Glenfield College.
Catherin will pay $180-$220 per week. This will start from early March after Catherin leaving New Zealand.

- MISSIONARY MEALS
President and Sister Lekias have asked that we are always mindful of the following guidelines when having the missionaries for dinner. They also express their gratitude for the many members that are willing to provide for the missionaries and appreciate your willingness to help the missionaries be obedient.
1. We Love them
2. We appreciate all that they do;
3. To kick Missionaries out of their home within the HOUR—Far too many missionaries are staying longer than the hour. Please ask members to turn off the TV when missionaries are in their home and remind the members of the sacred call of a Missionary
4. Missionaries are only allowed 4 DINNER appointments per week. Some wards are putting Meal rosters in place that cover 7 nights and are getting offended when the Missionaries say they can only attend 4 (they want to be Exactly Obedient)

SPECIAL DELIVERY
Hello Sisters
Your willing hearts and helping hands are greatly needed at this time! Zoe Sasulu had her sweet baby boy Noah quite a few weeks earlier than expected. She is very hesitant to ask for any assistance which we all know when we act that way ourselves, that is usually when we need help the most.
If you would be willing to take a meal to her family, please email back here or get in touch with Margret, our compassionate service leader (4809247) personally. Zoe will need meals from at least the 9-17 of February. Their family eats between five and six at night, the address is
9 Potter Ave
Northcote
Sisters, we so appreciate your willingness to serve and know that the Lord will bless each of you greatly for your efforts.
Thank you
Jess Wilkinson
