To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
I was reading about Noah and rainbows the other day and saw the phrase perpetual generations. I wondered what it meant, so I went on a journey of discovery. Rainbows mean something different today. I believe that the bible speaks truth and so I share what I learn from the scriptures. The Covenant A rainbow in […]
The talks given at the Women’s Session of General Conference spoke of strengthening our families in spite of what the world teaches and pressures us to believe. We have power as mothers, wives, sisters, women, and daughters of God. After this conference, combined with what will be stated in the General Sessions this weekend, I […]
Oh, no! Another post on Family History work! We Mormons have so much to do, how are we expected to do it all! I’ve been reading through the recent conference talks. By the way, I was complaining about how I wanted to read each talk, but never seemed to have time to do it. But […]
Now that summertime is here we have much more time to spend on our Family Home Evenings. Besides having all day, you don’t have to worry about homework and an early bedtime for school the next day. Start planning now for an all day Family Home Evening event at your house. Use this time to […]

When my husband and I were first married we belonged to a ward that was affectionately referred to as “Newly wed and Nearly dead”. It’s funny, now years later, we are in a similar ward where we are closer to the nearly dead members. Oh well, what goes around comes around, right? There are a […]
I am always on the lookout to find people with knowledge and experience. Think what pain we could avoid if we took one another’s experienced advice. Learning from others is the greatest gift we can give ourselves, and our children. My friends, the Stephensons, have raised a brood of children. He worked as a high […]
The other day, while going down the freeway, I passed a billboard that invited families to come to family night activities.
