To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
This Easter season, I have found myself thinking a lot about my great-grandmother Opal and grandmother Dixie, both who have past away in the last couple of years. With these women in mind, John 11:25-26 has meant more to me. I am the Resurrection and the Life; he that believeth in me, though he were […]
This lesson on prayer is a sweet reminder of what prayer should be in our lives. Yes, we can talk about how prayer has blessed us, protected us, and helped us to know that God is truly there. I would like to go one step deeper into this most precious blessing in our lives. Pres. Smith’s […]
I am really bad about reading lessons before hand. I have good intentions, but it never seems to last. And I’m sorry to have to put this into words, but sometimes the teacher doesn’t inspire me to study on my own, so I don’t. I have learned that I am the only loser in this […]
General Conference is a great time to stop and reevaluate our lives, make changes and overcome those challenges that we face. President Henry B. Eyring’s talk, “Mountains to Climb’ from the April 2012 General Conference inspired me. He helped me realize that I can climb the mountains in my life. President Eyring quoted President Spencer […]
The promise in Malachi that “he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers”, is coming true in our time, and not only among members of the Church. NBC’s “Who Do You Think You Are?”, PBS’s “Finding You Roots”, and BYU TV’s “The Generations Project” are at […]
Pornography is one of those topics no one wants to deal with until it becomes personal. I said until, not unless. I wanted to share a post that Stephanie, at Diapers and Divinity, wrote that really struck a cord with me. In her words, “Since I can’t actually punch Satan in the face, even though I […]
In our magazine, we displayed a snackfest called Feast Upon The Words. It was pretty simple to come up with the design and put it together, but I created the sections in sort of a primitive, time consuming way. You can probably come up with something easier and quicker. These are the basic […]
LOVE, WATCH OVER, AND STRENGTHEN The General Relief Society announced they were going to be emphasizing Visiting Teaching for the rest of the year. I imagine this will continue with the new Relief Society Presidency. I like this approach. In order to reach people, you need to go after the heart first, and that is […]
I have been madly working on a complete overhaul of my website. We are adding a magazine, and new pictures, and it’s taken over my life at the moment. My goal is to have most everything up and running over Conference weekend. I have many more posts up my sleeve. In fact, I just found, […]
This was a letter from the First Presidency, to every member of the Relief Society, back in September 1942. It was given in recognition of a new book, A Centenary of Relief Society, which was published by the General Board in commemoration of the centennial anniversary of that organization. It was also to be read […]
