Giant Soccer
For a sports activity for our young women, we set up two goals using folding chairs on either end of the flat yard in front of the church. The chairs were about 10 feet apart.

Mock Date Night

I called the bishop of our local singles ward for suggestions of young men who would be appropriate and have a fun time. We aimed to get mostly young men pre-mission, but had to fill in with a couple RMs. I decided…
