To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
As we’ve been reading about the Second Coming in our Sunday School lessons, and hearing about things in the news, I’ve been thinking about what it is we should all be doing to prepare for the Lord’s second coming. I have come to my own conclusion. There may be more to it, but this is […]
In the Book of Mormon, at the Waters of Mormon where Alma the prophet baptizes those that he was teaching in the wilderness, Alma rehearses the covenant we all make with the Lord when we are baptized. Starting in Mosiah 18:8 we learn how we are willing to bear one another’s burdens that they may […]
This is such a great idea. Thanks for sending this in!! “A few weeks ago my third daughter turned 10, and I began preparing for our Mother/Daughter Birthday Date, which has become a “Coming of Age” tradition in our home. This tradition began when my first daughter turned 10. She was in 4th grade, and […]
There is nothing like being bombarded, from all angles, with a message. The first thing was a reminder that this month’s Visiting Teaching message should come out of the Conference Addresses. That is always difficult for me to do; I sometimes pick several and combine their message, or pick a different one for each sister, […]
I love finding these articles that give you a snapshot of what it was like “way back when”. Enjoy this article from the Relief Society Magazine in Mar 1939. “According to one of our great modern thinkers, we Americans have experienced “seven adventures in pioneering”: first, for spiritual freedom—the right to worship God as conscience […]
What is our first thought as we approach Easter, this most holy day of holidays? As I contemplate this special time of year, I praise the Lord for my increased knowledge, through study and prayer, which He has given me for the building up of my testimony, and love, for the Savior of the World. […]
“There is one holiday, or more properly holy day, generally observed among Christians, the date of which is still set somewhat after the old Jewish reckoning. That is Easter, which comes near the time of the Feast of the Passover, being the Sabbath directly following the first full moon after the vernal equinox, which marks […]
Who says we can’t have anymore ward activities? Not the handbook. It’s possible the activities chairman was falling into the trap of hosting too many parties and our leaders would like us to be a little more purposeful at our gatherings. In ward council, the leaders in the ward can brainstorm ideas to get various […]
How many lessons on tithing and fast offering have we had over the years? Have we stopped listening, or just rehashed the same ideas? For so many years we have been reminded what tithing really is, so here is the real question: Are we just paying our tithing? Or are we repaying the Lord for […]
We’ve had a little time to digest the new Handbook. All of us can look at it, because it’s online at www.lds.org. I think it’s significant that it’s available to all of us. We are all expected to be active members of this Church. Understanding “The Church Plan” allows all of us to get involved […]
