To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
I don’t have much to say about this month’s visiting teaching message. But I do have some questions. What did those Saints, in Nauvoo, know about the Lord that made receiving their endowment so important before crossing the Plains? Are we as anxious to go to the temple as those Saints were? When we go […]
Another general conference is over, so now what are we going to do? Pres. Monson’s final words to us were: Study the messages carefully. Be good citizens and good neighbors. Be tolerant, kind, and loving. Jesus has shown us how to act on a daily basis. Visit others. Rejoice! Let Jesus guide us. May our […]
For those who were unable to attend the Auxiliary Training in Salt Lake City, you’ll be thrilled to know that you can view the session online at lds.org, as if you were there. They gave us a lot of information, a lot of things to think about, and the spirit flowed. They will continue along […]
Many of you may remember how some of the early leaders of our Church were imprisoned because they were living the law of polygamy. In those days, Salt Lake City went as far south as 5th South, so they built the Utah Penitentiary way down to where Sugar House Park now rests, thinking that location […]
There are many paintings, sculptures, and depictions of Christ. Some are just beautiful, others not so much. I thought, as a celebration of Easter, I would share some of my favorites of our Savior, Jesus Christ. I really love how she depicts him here. A mixture of strength and tenderness. His […]
This is mother’s response to our son’s request. (Read here to read a father’s response.) Dear Son, So many women don’t understand the Plan of Heavenly Father. Isn’t it silly that they think they can call the shots and change doctrine? The order of the priesthood is not a guideline from the Handbook, it is […]
Susa Young Gates was a formidable woman, and I look forward to the day I can visit and talk with her. She spoke strongly about the responsibility mothers have of teaching their children the gospel. Being the first editor of the Young Woman’s Journal, she was free to speak her mind on pretty […]
I am a big believer in writing personal histories based on stories and experiences. Many lessons and testimonies have been born through a simple story. Let’s be honest, your grandchildren aren’t going to be interested in your detailed daily diary; not when we see journalism reports being cut shorter and shorter on the Internet. News […]
Which one of us has had a stone lobbed at us, for no apparent good reason, and our feathers became ruffled? Or perhaps we have spoken out of turn only to regret it minutes later? How many “if only” moments have we experienced because we forgot to listen to the calming voice of the Holy […]
These lessons are interesting as they are really teaching us how to be better visiting teachers to one another. I hope you are having special experiences as we practice what we learn, blessing the lives of all of us involved. I would like to share with you my experience with activation. I hope you can […]
