The Smyrna Ward Cub Scouts are in need of some volunteers to help supervise day camp this year. Day camp is a week-long activity held at Jim Miller Park on June 8-12 from 7:45am-3:00pm. Obviously, we are not asking for anyone to commit to an entire week of help, but if you are available for any of those single days, we desperately need the help!
The commitment entails showing up for the time and shepherding about five, very willing boys through a series of activities run by other people (things like archery, crafts, etc.) Volunteers can be female or male (ask your husbands if they are available too!).
There is a brief fact sheet attached and, if you can help, there is a form to fill out that I can send you. Please respond quickly as the registration is due this week! Let me know if you can be of service.
Thanks so much. We really appreciate any help you can offer!

Time Sensitive Announcements!!! April 14, 2009
Brethren,
We want to thank each of you for reporting your home teaching so quickly. This month, 16 of you replied within 24 hours with your home teaching results. I’m not sure you each understand how helpful that is. It was a pleasant surprise, so thank you.
We hope that each of you enjoyed your Easter and had an opportunity to reflect on the Savior and all that He has given to each of us.
We have a series of announcements this week. We appreciate your help in advance!
1. Sister Hill move – THIS SATURDAY, April 18th. More details to follow with address and time.
2. Youth baptism: THIS FRIDAY, April 17th 6:30 PM. Think back to your own baptism. I am sure that your attendance will be greatly appreciated.
3. Stake Service Activity - April 25th. 9:00 AM—Noon. Our team lead is going to be Josh Jernigan. This is a huge service project with media coverage brought in by the stake so it is important that we get some solid attendance. Several friends, neighbors, community groups, churches, and partners in Atlanta came together to plan a project where we could serve the community, work with the community through partnering, do something good for the enviro
nment by example, and have time left for our family. We will be cleaning up bike and pedestrian trails the PATH
Foundation built in Atlanta as well as a few parks through Park Pride in the vicinity of the trails.
At noon, we will finish up the work and meet for photo opps, media interviews, and a complimentary lunch around 1:00. An invitation with driving directions to the building will be given to volunteers after the work is finished at each work site. The LDS church is providing the lunch complimentary to all event partners, volunteers, media, and city officials.
4. Paige Henderson Move - May 2nd. No time yet. Stay tuned.
5. Stake Priesthood Invitation: “You are invited to a special evening of inspiration, testimon
y, and brotherhood. The Atlanta Georgia Stake Priesthood Meeting will be held Sunday, April 26 at 6:00 PM at the Ponce de Leon Building. We extend a special invitation to fathers and sons, and ask that all fathers invite their sons (ages 11 years and older and regardless of whether they are holders of the Priesthood or members of the church) to attend with them. Come prepared to feel the Spirit of the Lord. You will be blessed by attending. We look forward to seeing you.” --Stake Presidency.
6. New member discussions – Thanks to the sisters on Sunday, we should all be prepar
ed to give a simple new member lesson. We will be getting a list of all those families that still need those lessons and we ask that you will be diligent in delivering those lessons as the home teacher. Thank you in advance.
Lastly, for those of you that have not yet had a chance to see the Easter video put out by the church, please take a few minutes and watch it with your family. The Atonement is what makes Jesus Christ our Savior. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EpFhS0dAduc
