Beijing District Women's Conference


May 18, 2014

Every year the women from the three Beijing branches get together to work on a humanitarian project. This year we made pillows for children in an orphanage in the Beijing area. It was a great opportunity to visit with each other and do something worth while at the same time.

Some of the women sewed the pillow cases together.









Some put the stuffing in the cases.

A couple of the younger sisters thought the cotton filling was a good place to try and disappear.


Allison, Mary Latimer and Isabel Berrios were happy to be part of the project.

Su Wei, Marilyn Taggart and Mary Ann Morris helped sew the pillows up.


I got to help with the yellow pillows because I was wearing a  yellow sweater.
Just kidding of course.



Mary Ann Morris, Katie Hoskins and Wendy Jong helped coordinate the project.
In the end we were able to make a pillow for every child in the orphanage.
As my Chinese teacher would say, "It was very warming to our hearts."
