Lowell Ward
After learning about the importance of temple work, the activity day girls from the Lowell Ward, Nashua New Hampshire Stake, made a temple using empty paper rolls, cardboard, paint, glue, great teamwork, and lots of creativity!
Union Fort Third Ward
The Primary children of the Union Fort Third Ward, Midvale Utah Union Fort Stake, helped clean their meetinghouse by dusting and vacuuming the chapel—they even dusted the hymnbooks! The children also made bags containing winter gloves, a water bottle, and a small package of candy to give to children in need.
