Month of Thanks --- Day 15

When the church came out with the new format for Enrichment Night I wasn't too thrilled. To be honest with you, I thought their would be problems with it. I thought that the sisters would form cliques and not be able to get to know the rest. I also thought that the groups wouldn't actually meet like they were supposed to. But I'm here to say
how wrong I was!
I've been involved in two focus groups now and
I love it.
Tonight I attended the first meeting of our Financial Planning group. First off, there were sisters there that I hardly knew and I was so excited to be in this class with them so I can get to know them better. Sister Cook and Sister Harward went to a class at Education Week and are sharing what they learned there with us. Tonight Sister Cook was telling us how she has applied what she learned and is experiencing great results. We are going to be learning about how to get out of debt, save money, gain wealth, and how to teach our children what we learn.
I left tonight with great hope and excitement that I would be able to do this and get my finances in control (and also acquire wealth along the way).
So, tonight I am thankful for knowledge and
the opportunity to gain knowledge.
I am also thankful for Relief Society and the great sisters that are in our ward.

So what's up with you commenting on my friends blogs but not mine? Just kidding. I need to come up with ideas for focus groups. Any ideas?
