This was my second enrichment and a great success. Something that started out so materialistic turned out to be very spiritual. Many sisters came out I think because of the fun and different approach. But, I have inspired them to come back because they were nurtured spiritually.
1. Toy Store/ Strengthening relationships with your children. (0 to 100 yrs) 2. Sporting Goods Store/ Strengthening relationships with your spouse 3. Shoe Store/ compassionate service leader: Walking in others shoes 4. Dress Store/VT-co-ordinator: Characteristics of a loving VT 5. Food Court - Mrs. Reid's chocolate chip cookies (Mrs. Fields)

Decorate front entrance. Early bird prize was a gold metal gift bag, found at Wal-Mart-Christmas dept., the shopping bag of the year. It had tissue paper and we wanted her to have a little cash 100 grand bar and some change. (chocolate coins)
Teachers were in charge of the set up and break down of their own stores. They also had to come up with a handout which highlighted their class and something small for the sisters to remember their store.
When the sisters arrived there was a table set up with 2 posters advertising for a credit card. Pictures of Christ lined the wall behind them. It was the master card logo but instead it read The Master in Charge 1-800-PRAY. I also made these the size of regular credit cards printed on high gloss photo paper. On the back of the cards I drew a bar code with a thick black magic marker and put a piece of tape across the back. Each card was numbered 1-4. This would let each sister know which class she would start off at and then rotate from there. We also used these cards to draw the winner for our early bird prize. Our teacher gave a wonderful lesson and set the sisters out with such a great spirit.
Each one of the teachers truly prepared their class by the spirit there were tears shed in each class. I think telling them initially that it was an evening on strengthening relationships we would have lost 20 had 50 come out. Giving HFPE a new twist as helped improve our numbers. I truly believe that enrichment night is not for Sunday structure. There is no reason why we as sisters. We not have fun and still be spiritual. We proved this that night. Later that week I received so many thank you cards in the mail as well as that night.
