When was the last time you read through the For the Strength of Youth pamphlet? You know, it isn’t just for youth. I have to admit, It’s been a while for me. A couple of months ago, I decided to work on my Personal Progress. (I’ll write about that experience in a future post.) There […]

I’ve heard many people express a positive excitement for the new Come Follow Me Sunday schedule, but I have also heard great concern about how it’s to be conducted and administered. As I have spent years studying the purpose and destiny of our Relief Society, I can testify this new program aligns well with what […]

This is an old post I found that I thought I would update and re-present. In my eyes, Julie B. Beck was a great RS President who taught us how to love Relief Society and recognize our worth as women and daughters of God. This month’s visiting teaching message is our choice from all of […]

I’ve talked a lot, in the past, about how women, in the Church, have power. This power comes from the priesthood and is available to every man and woman who calls upon God to better their lives and the lives around them. The Lord is depending on us to use His power. This priesthood power […]

Did you hear Women’s Conference last night? We were given strong and loving council to fulfill our innate abilities, as women, to do the work of the Lord and build the kingdom of God.   How grateful I am for prophets and leaders who guide us, remind us, and call us to repentance, so that […]

We Are Covenant Keepers

At BYU’s Women’s Conference (2015), I was overwhelmed with thoughts from the theme, which was Covenants. Are you a covenant keeper? What does it really mean to keep the covenants I have made with my Father in heaven? Do I even really understand what covenants I’ve made and what it takes to live by them? Covenant […]

Is preparing a 72-hour kit a woman’s job, or a man’s? It seems that most websites, on survival, are offered by men, but mostly I see women actually putting them together. Hmmm, just an interesting observation.   Everyone and their uncle, grandmother, boss, and cousin will have an opinion on what to put in a […]

While my mind is on preparedness these days, I thought I would share a couple of random thoughts about how to gather a usable food storage.   The way to store food storage, and use it, is as unique as the individual doing it, which is a good thing, but sometimes it helps to see […]

Sister Linda K. Burton spoke, at the General Women’s Meeting, on being spiritually prepared to receive temple blessings. Mentioning the story of the Nephites and how they were “prepared…in a manner which never had been known” (Alma 49:8), what does that mean for us?   Have we been properly prepared to enter the temple, or […]

Pioneers are an important part of American History, but we forget that these brave and forgiving pioneers were rescued twice. Here is the story of the Second Rescue.     The Riverton Wyoming Stake was blessed to actively participate in a Second Rescue of the Martin and Willie Handcart Companies.
