July Relief Society Meeting:
Serving Those who Serve our Country


This month we will be discussing ways in which we can aide and serve those families in our area with an active duty family member, or a family member who has recently returned from active duty.

Please come and join us in finding ways we can be of service to those who have served our Nation, and their families who have sacrificed much for them to do so.  

Date: Thursday, July 19
Time: 6:30pm
Location: Relief Society Room

We will be collecting items for the Military Moms & Wives of Brazoria County who need items for care packages. For a list of items they need PLEASE CLICK HERE.

We will also be writing letters to service men & women, if any of your children would like to write a letter or draw a picture, please bring it with you so we can include that in our donations.

We look forward to an inspiring evening and hope to see you all there.
Childcare will be provided.
