Our "Gathering As Sisters" post series is designed to help us as sisters within our wards/branches see that we are part of a whole - that across the stake there are other groups of sisters gathering together in activities and service to support & teach one another and develop friendships as they fulfill the purposes of the Relief Society in building faith, strengthening families and providing relief. Each month through the end of this year, we will share one or two highlights from activities within our Relief Societies.
We have truly been blessed with our current Handbook of Instruction that allows each ward/branch to counsel together and then plan with inspiration according to their specific needs. We hope that by sharing some of the wonderful things happening within our wards/branches, we can understand better the individual yet similar needs we share as sisters in the Columbia Maryland Stake.

From Our YSA Branch Relief Society:
In Febuary, the YSA Branch Relief Society decided that since we're a bunch of single ladies, it would be fun to have a "Gal"entine's Day activity to celebrate the love we "gals" have for one another. It was a great success! We did facials, manicures, and pedicures while eating ice cream and laughing with one another. We also had a lot of fun creating "gal"entine's for one another. It was a great opportunity for all of us to get to know one another better and just spend time pampering ourselves! Happy Galentine's Day! - Gina Stephens
