Christmas Message

With Christmas just around the corner we wanted to give you a Christmas message. Enjoy!

"When we keep the spirit of Christmas, we keep the Spirit of Christ, for the Christmas spirit is the Christ Spirit. There is no better time than now, this very Christmas season, for all of us to rededicate ourselves to the principles taught by Jesus Christ." -Thomas S. Monson

BOM Challenge

Today's thought:

"We can be delivered from the ways of evil and wickedness by turning to the teachings of the holy scriptures. The Savior is the great deliver, for He delivers us from death and from sin. I declare that Jesus is the Christ and we can draw close to Him by reading the Book of Mormon. The Book of Mormon is another testament of Jesus Christ. The first testaments of our Savior are in the Old and New Testaments--or the Bible."
-Elder L. Tom Perry

We hope you are having a wonderful week! Hope the reading is going well! Keep it up! Today's thought:

Jacob 2:18-19:
"But before ye seek for riches, seek ye for the kingdom of God. And after ye have obtained a hope in Christ ye shall obtain riches, if ye seek them; and ye will see them for the intent to do good--to clothe the naked, and to feed the hungry, and to liberate the captive, and administer relief to the sick and the afflicted."

This life isn't about being rich by the worlds standards, but being rich by the Lord's standards. We need to fill our lives with the Gospel, fill it will service!!

Love, your Leaders

How is your reading going? Keep it up! Today's thought:

Alma 41:10:
"Do not suppose, because it has been spoken concerning restoration, that ye shall be restored from sin to happiness. Behold, I say unto you, wickedness never was happiness."

Doing the wrong thing might look great for a moment, but once you sin you realize that it wasn't as great as it looked. Doing what's right always gives us blessings and brings us joy!

1 Nephi 19:23
"And I did read many things unto them which were written in the books of Moses; but that I might more fully persuade them to believe in the Lord their Redeemer I did read unto them that which was written by the prophet Isaiah; for I did liken all scriptures unto us, that it might be for our profit and learning."


The scriptures are for our day. They were written to help guide us! USE THEM!

Thank you to all those who came to the Temple yesterday! It was an awesome trip!!! 

How is your reading going? Keep it up! Today's thought:

Helaman 5:12:

"And now, my sons, remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall."

The wise man built his house upon a rock and the house stood still. We need to use Christ as our foundation.

REMINDER: Temple Trip tomorrow! Be at the church at 5:15am!!!!

1 Nephi 3:7
"And it came to pass that I, Nephi, said unto my father: I will go and do the things which the Lord hath commanded, for I know that the Lord giveth no commandments unto the children of men, save he shall prepare a way for them that they may accomplish the thing which he commandeth them."


The Lord has sent us to earth to do hard things.

Mosiah 2:17
"And behold, I tell you these things that ye may learn wisdom; that ye may learn that when ye are in the service of your fellow beings ye are only in the service of God."

Service is the best way thank our Heavenly Father for His blessings. It is the prefect way to be a blessing to someone in need. It can and usually is a blessing in our lives too!
