September 2020 Ministering Handout

  Welcome to the September 2020 Ministering Handout!

I am sooo ready for fall to come!  This morning there was a little bit of coolness in the air and it makes me very happy!  I love summer and all, but the heat here in Utah has been record breaking some days.  It is time for a change of season!  I love that we get to  experience all 4 seasons here…and fall is one of my favorites!

For this month I just thought I would keep things short and sweet!  The message is short and the handout is sweet!

Lucky Rice Crispie Treats

Lucky Rice Crispie Treats

I am feeling very lucky today…or should I say blessed!  Last week my email was hacked into and I was wiped out for a few days!  The hacker managed to wipe out all of my contacts and I could not receive any emails.  I could send them out but was unable to receive any!  Through a series of many trial things, I was finally blessed to find a cute, sweet girl at the Outlook Store in the mall.  She was able to find the help we needed through a tech guy.  Together they found the problem and were able to restore all of my contacts again!  So as I said I am feeling very blessed now!

To celebrate, I thought that I would make some Lucky Rice Crispie Treats!  Don’t you think that is fitting?lucky rice crispie treats Continue reading
