To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
How do we demonstrate our discipleship? The word discipleship is well chosen. As sisters, we serve. That is what we do. But, as we’ve learned more about the history of our organization, we have learned that we save lives too; often by serving. So, as disciples of Christ, how do we represent Him through our […]
The Bonneville YSA stake put together a musical production, Rob Gardner’s “Lamb of God”. This is an oratorio consisting of the Savior’s last week of his life. The oratorio begins the biblical story of Mary, Martha, and their brother Lazarus. After the death of Lazarus, Martha comes to the Savior singing, “Touch my heart, and […]
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 year Christmas is on a Sunday. What a great opportunity this is for us to create a holy season for our children, friends, and family. We all suspect Christ may, or may not, have been born on December 25th. In fact, this date was actually a pagan holiday, originally. Not much has changed over […]
I half-heartedly apologize for this rambling post. At the beginning of the year, I set a goal to read the New Testament, along with Sunday School class. I have never done this before, so I was determined to prove myself capable of follow-through. As I read, I have been writing my thoughts in a notebook […]
In Pres.

This past General Conference, we heard two talks on the Atonement. There were also talks given on Desire, Hope, and The Sabbath and the Sacrament, which closely relate to this topic. Elder Kent F. Richards reminded us how the Atonement covers all the pain that we experience. And Elder C. Scott Grow spoke on how […]
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 […]
I don’t usually watch Oprah, but I caught the show, a while back, with Goldie Hawn. The show was about finding happiness, so it caught my eye. The Hawn Foundation is an organization to help children, our future, find happiness in this very difficult world we live in. They listed several things that will bring […]
