November Presidency Message

Most of us just enjoyed a bountiful Thanksgiving feast, and we numbered the many blessings that we have received from a loving Heavenly Father! This month, as we celebrate the birth of the Savior, we have the opportunity to partake of a SPIRITUAL FEAST, by increasing our effort to draw nearer to Him. As we contemplate His miraculous birth, His perfect life, and the reality of His atoning sacrifice and glorious resurrection, let us strive to center our lives in Him - through fasting and prayer, studying and pondering

His teachings, and through following His supreme example of unselfish service. It is our hope that amid the hustle and bustle of the season, that each of you will find a quiet moment to feel His love for you, and

to express your love to Him. May our hearts be filled with gratitude and joy as we celebrate His life this Christmas season! “O come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord!”

Merry Christmas!

August Presidency Message

This is a wonderful time of year to reflect on those who have made amazing sacrifices because of their faith. In our last General Conference, President Monson spoke of different examples of those who have made sacrifices in order to receive the blessings found only in the temples of God, and how they never fail to touch his heart and bring him a renewed sense of thankfulness for our temples. He asks, 'Why are so many willing to give so much in order to receive the blessings of the temple? Those who understand the eternal blessings which come from the temple know that no sacrifice is too great, no price too heavy, no struggle too difficult in order to receive those blessings. There are never too many miles to travel, too many obstacles to overcome, or too much discomfort to endure. They understand the the saving ordinances received in the temple that permit us to someday return to our Heavenly Father in an eternal family relationship and to be endowed with blessings and power from on high are worth every sacrifice and every effort.'
'The world can be challenging and difficult, and we are often surrounded by that which can drag us down. In this sacred house we will find peace, we will be renewed and fortified. Our sacrifice may be setting time aside from this daily chaos to go to the temple regularly, to be worthy of a recommend and regard it as the precious possession it is.' We challenge you to set this goal!! May we make whatever sacrifices are necessary to attend the temple and and to have the spirit of the temple in our hearts and our homes.
We love you! The Relief Society Presidency
