Mark your calendars!  We're excited to announce that the Orem South religion class will be starting up again next Tuesday, September 15, at 7:00 p.m. We're very happy to have Brother and Sister Christensen back as our teachers again this year.  They will be teaching about the Lectures on Faith, and on alternating weeks we'll also be studying various conference addresses.  

Please note that this year the religion class will be held every Tuesday at 7:00 p.m.  The class will be followed by refreshments and a chance to socialize afterward.  We'll again be meeting at the Lakeview Stake Center, 400 West 1800 South, Orem (get off freeway at University Parkway, turn south onto Sandhill Road as if going to Walmart, continue until 1800 South, turn left one block).

Kenny Mays, will be our instructor.  He is the foremost CES instructor on Church History, is currently a Religion Instructor at the Institute of Religion at the University of Utah, and is a real crowd pleaser. He's agreed also to teach the D&C and Lives of the Prophets.  It will be Tuesdays and runs Sept. 8th through December 8th.  It be held at the chapel located at 11626 South 300 East, in Draper, and starts at 7:00pm.  The class will last about an hour.  The cost is $2l.00 for the whole course or $2.50 per week.

This Religion Course should be outstanding, and will be a great opportunity to meet other Singles as well!  So Singles 31+ please come!  I've attached a flyer for complete information on this wonderful opportunity.

*Service Auction/Thanksgiving Feast*

The Service Committee is combining forces with the Activities Committee (kinda like the Wonder Twins ;) for a fun night of feasting, fraternizing and fundraising!!! On November 14th at 7:00 p.m. at the Union Fort 9th Branch building (540 East 7150 South), we will be holding a dinner and our annual service auction which will include a silent auction as well as a live auction with a talented auctioneer : )

*We are asking branch members or visitors to donate various levels of service items.  If you are asking what can I possibly give or do or make? Well, here's some ideas from the past that might trigger your creative juices:*

Baked goods or other edible delights, Auto mechanic help, Car Washes/Detailing, Personal Training Sessions, Quilts, Sky Mile Points, Disney Packages, Romantic Hot Air Balloon Ride for 2 (no guarantee of a love connection ;), Party for #?, Dinner for #?, Eye exams, Room Organization Advice, Handy Man help, Books, Makeovers, Music lessons, Concert tickets, Haircuts, Facials, Leaf Raking, Snow Shoveling, and Gift wrapping....and the list could go on!  We know we have many talented members in our branch who work in all career paths.  If there are donations you can gather from your employers or friends, that's another great way to help out the cause!

We want to encourage everyone to come and are very aware that budgets are tight.  When you consider that all proceeds will go to those who have much greater needs than ours, then everyone can find some way to donate.  We will auction off small, medium and large items to fit everyone's budget : )

Please contact Brian Larson #801/641-9890 bklarson33@yahoo.com or Jackie Rodat #801/792-3270 jackie_rodat@hotmail.com if you have questions or if you want to make anonymous donations.

For the whole family!

Last Saturday we had a great game. It was lots of fun and the weather was perfect. This Saturday will be a bit cooler, but now that we've had 429 join our Facebook group in less than a week, I am sure we will have even a better turn out.

Don't forget to confirm if you are coming in order to make sure we have enough flags. If anyone has additional flags or pinnies please let me know. I have order some, but won't be here until next week.

Hope to see you on Saturday!
