Provident Living

Announcing a new Meetup for PROVIDENT LIVING & SELF-RELIANCE!

What: Protecting Your Family From the Coming Inflation With Gold and Silver

When: Thursday, January 13, 2011 7:00 PM

Where: Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
4304 Hillsboro Rd
Nashville, TN 37215

We are pleased to have Mark Henline presenting at our January Meetup. Mark's background is rich with experience. He is extremely passionate about the need to protect our families from the coming inflation which deficit spending and money printing will bring.

His presentation, in the form of a persuasive argument, will cover:

1. A brief history of money, and in particular, why gold and silver are the best stores of value.
2. The history of money in the U.S., and, how we have moved from a gold-backed currency to a paper- backed currency.
3. Why deficit spending is so insidious, and, how it robs families of their wealth and freedom.
4. Why gold and silver can protect you from the coming inflation, and, the best way to own gold and silver.
5. I will bring physical examples of silver that can be purchased easily and without a large cash commitment.
6. I have 25 years of experiencing in owning and investing in gold, silver and other precious metal related investments.
7. This presentation is for anyone who wants to preserve their purchasing power during times of inflation and hyperinflation.

An overhead projector will also be used for a Powerpoint Presentation.
(The views expressed are the views of the presenter)

A Big Thank You!

Wow! The fair was fantastic!!! We want each of you to know just how much we appreciate all of your preparation, time, and dedication to making the fair a success!!! Many many many people commented on how much they learned and how impressed they were with the classes, presentations, each and every booth, the yummy food, and the whole experience all together.

FEMA Crisis Counseling

Dear Sisters:

Below is an e-mail shared by Pat Woodmansee/Maury County Emergency Team, concerning potential full-time job opportunities in our stake boundaries. Please share this information with the bishops, employment specialists and sisters in your units. These positions will fill quickly, but may be a great opportunity for those looking for full-time employment for the next year.

Thank you,
Lynette Harris, Secretary
Franklin Stake Relief Society

As Centerstone looks to receive a FEMA grant to provide "Crisis Counseling" for the next 60 days (and more than likely an extension for another 10 months for a one year grant), I am going to be in need of 11 Crisis Counselors; these are full time positions paying hopefully around $20 per hour. These individuals will be working in 14 counties of middle Tennessee that Centerstone covers and were declared disaster counties by the President. The counties are:
Columbia Area
Hickman
Lawrence
Lewis
Maury
Perry
Wayne

Clarksville Area
Cheatham
Dickson
Houston
Humphreys
Montgomery
Robertson
Stewart
and sharing responsibility of Davidson county with the Mental Health Coop.

Their job will be community outreach; going door-to-door checking on people impacted by the floods and attending community meetings of flood victims, etc.
These positions do not require a mental health degree or experience. Training will be provided by FEMA to these individuals prior to there "hitting the streets" on psychological first aid.
Please pass this information along to anyone you might know of that lives in any of these areas that might be looking for a full time job for the next year and that you think would be a good fit?
Tell them they can contact me via my e-mail and to also include your name in their e-mail to me.

Thanks.

Nashville flood relief opportunities


As the case in any disaster, the recovery phase is the longest part of the experience, and one that requires a strong and sustained effort from volunteers. While the events of the past 48 hours have created a sense of urgency, the real effects of volunteers are going to be felt through the rest of this week and month as we do the nitty-gritty work of cleaning, rebuilding, and restoring.

The Primary has been asked to help with 'The Day of Service' on April 24th. Although the primary children will not be actively involved on the 24th, we have been asked to donate new or gently used children's books for Mercy Clinic and children's shoes and adult shoes for Soles 4 Souls. Donation boxes will be located in the primary room and in the foyers at the church. If members are donating shoes, we ask that rubber bands be put around the shoes to keep them together.
Each week in Primary we will help the children get excited about being involved in the stake wide day of service by donating their old shoes and books to less fortunate children.

Go to the House of the Lord



“Attend the temple. You will be blessed for so doing. Every man or woman who goes into the house of the Lord leaves there a better man or woman than he or she was when he or she entered the house of the Lord. The house of the Lord will have a refining effect upon you. It will cultivate unselfishness within your lives. It will build righteousness. It will impress upon you the importance of doing what you ought to do. Go to the house of the Lord” President Gordon B. Hinckley

Quilts for Haiti

The Stake RS is providing a wonderful service opportunity. They will be making 50 quilts to send to Haiti. They need our help!! The immediate need is for king, queen, or twin flat sheets or fitted sheets with the elastic cut off and corner seams taken out. The sheets don't have to be new, they just need to to be in good condition with no stains, please. Sister Chris Grayson is heading up the project and would like the sheets this weekend, if possible. The sheets will be used for the backs of the quilts and she would like to match the backs to the fabric she will be purchasing for the fronts. We have ward conference this Sunday and it will be the perfect opportunity to hand the sheets off to the stake RS presidency then. If you'd like to bring the sheets to the clothing swap, we can set them aside for Sunday.

Also, there will be two opportunities to help put the quilts together - Thursday, March 11th and Thursday, March 18th at 9am at the Stake Center. If you quilt, bring your machine. If you don't quilt, bring your iron, ironing board, extension cords, scissors, etc.
There will be plenty to do for everyone!

Thank you so much for your help! I'm excited for this opportunity for us to serve and help others.

General Relief Society President


This past week while in Utah I was able to talk with Sister Julie B. Beck the General Relief Society President who happens to be a wonderful friend from my home town. While talking and catching up with her I mentioned that I was recently called to be RS Secretary in our ward here in Franklin, TN.
