July Presidency Message

President Monson said: “Before we can successfully undertake a personal search for Jesus, we must first prepare time for him in our lives and room for him in our hearts. In these busy days there are many who have time for golf, time for shopping, time for work, time for play—but no time for Christ......As we undertake our personal search for Jesus, aided and guided by the principle of prayer, it is fundamental that we have a clear concept of him whom we seek.....we seek Jesus the Christ, our Redeemer; he who took upon himself the sins of the world and so willingly died that we might forever live. This is the Jesus whom we seek.”
Our daily routines should not begin without first going to our knees, seeking guidance from our Savior, asking Him for His help for us to be “meek, humble, patient, full of love, [and] willing to submit” to whatever the Lord requires. As President Benson promised, 'when we put God first all other things fall into their proper place or drop out of our lives.' We trust the Lord. As a result, we do more good and we make real progress lives.

With much love--The Relief Society Presidency

June Presidency Message

President Gordon B. Hinckley has said: “Love of God is the root of all virtue, of all goodness, of all strength of character, of all fidelity to do right. …Love the Lord your God, and love His Son, and be ever grateful for their love for us. Whenever other love fades, there will be that shining, transcendent, everlasting love of God for each of us and the love of His Son, who gave His life for each of us.”
Receive it. Feel it. It is not enough just to know that God loves you. The gift is to be felt continually day by day. His love will never change. There is no shortage of his love, only in our willingness to do what is needed to feel it. We pray that each of you will seek earnestly to feel the love of God in your lives each day.

With love,
The Relief Society Presidency

Stake Family Month

The Stake Presidency would like us to join them in celebrating, protecting, and strengthening our Families during the month of May! The goal they have set is:

100% FHE
100% Family Prayer
100% Family Scripture Study

They ask us to please pray for guidance, help, and direction, as we prepare for 'Family Month'. As President Gordon B. Hinckley advised: '..follow the whisperings of the the Spirit to guide you in the most serious of all responsibilites, for the consequences of your leadership in your home will be eternal and everlasting.'

LET'S GET IT DONE!!
