Thursday, 9/15 our Relief Society had a WONDERFUL enrichment activity where we "met" 7 Women of the Book of Mormon. They sat with us at table hile we ate our supper and later took the microphone and told us about their lives in Book of Mormon times. These synopses, written with such care by Wendi Egnew, gave us insights into the trials and times of these women, and related them to our current day. We met Sariah (Shari Ayers), Lamoni's Wife (Brianna Wheeler), Abish (Jennifer Standiford), Lamoni's Queen Mother (Jessica Williams), the Mother of one of the 2,000 stripling warriors (Jennifer Terkelson), Mormon's wife (Rose Hudson) and historical narrator, (Leslie Smith). Thanks to the RS Enrichment Committee for presenting us with such an inspiring evening. I can hardly wait to meet up with these women again as I continue reading the Book of Mormon as part of this project.
By on I have a testimony of The Book of Mormon on 9/18/11

This was a wonderful evening where we were able to learn more about the women of the Book of Mormon. It let you take a peek into their lives and see them as "real" people instead of as a name on a page in the scriptures. Thanks to everyone for making it a great evening!
