111 Days to the Cove

Week #10 - May 31st thru June 6, 2009


Find an item of clothing that you no longer use and donate it. Most pioneers had only 2 outfits; one for everyday and one for special occasions. As you go through your closet and your drawers, ponder which two outfits would you choose if you could only keep two. Would they be warm enough in cold weather? Would they hold up for 111 days if you had to wear them everyday? Would your sense of fashion still have any influence in which outfits you would choose?


Make sure you have the proper clothing you need, as outlined in the Stake’s pioneer trek clothing recommendations.


Read Doctrine and Covenants 97:8. Ponder the sacrifices that the early saints were willing to endure for the sake of their religious convictions. Then write in your journal why you are grateful to belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
