They were:
Look Ahead and Believe that the Temple is a Place of Worship. We were so blessed to have this one presented by the Kansas City Temple matron.
Look Ahead and Believe that you can be happy in tumultuous times.
Look Ahead and Believe that you are of worth.
Look Ahead and Believe that our homes can be a refuge from the world.
The workshops were followed by a simple luncheon. One of the ladies who helped decorate owns a shop, Searcy Creek Designs, and she provided the beautiful temple pictures that you'll see. Everyone commented that having them there made it feel like we were sitting in our homes looking out at the temple.
It was a fabulous day. Here are some pictures of what we did.
Here is a closeup of the post-it note holder that we made for each sister. Bought the coasters on Amazon and covered with scrapbook paper. Put a magnet on the back and tied on the pretty ribbons.

The sister who taught the class on our homes being a refuge told us that she'd never had a copy of The Family - a Proclamation to the World hanging in their home because the print she had was too small to really be able to read it well. She recently got the pdf from the LDS Church's website and had it printed off in a large format from Costco. She had it sitting on the floor of their home and didn't know where to hang it. She knew there was a nail in the bathroom, so she hung it in there so it wouldn't get stepped on. She related how many times she has read it and how much she has learned. Even their teenage daughter asked that it be kept hanging in the bathroom because she had learned so much by reading it so many times!
