YSA OUTING AND HELPING HANDS EVENT

More than expected came for the YSA outing.

YSA gathered in the chapel prior to departing for botanical garden trip. Some are more photo-conscious than others.

They had a second bus coming, but many had to stand for the three hour drive to the gardens.

The same day a Helping Hands event sponsored by our ward went to a Senior Care facility. Food and charbon were among the donations offered to the center. Loading the charbon bundle into our truck.
