Relief Society is the name of our church’s organization for women. It was officially organized on March 17, 1942 in Nauvoo, Illinois. What started off as a small gathering of women has grown to include close to 7 million women in 185 countries. I love learning about the history of Relief Society, the work women […]
Mary, Did You Know {A Study on Mary}
My third child was born one week before Christmas. It was definitely a special time in my life as I reflected on another mother so long ago. It made Christmas extra special that year having a newborn baby in the house. I prepared this study to look further into the life of Mary, the mother […]

The Miracles of Jesus {Book Review}
The time has come where I really must write the review for this book. I have been putting it off. Why? Because I can’t seem to find the right words to describe the beautiful and sacred feeling I had when reading it. It has truly touched me in a profound way. The Miracles of Jesus […]
Using Everyday Objects to Teach Gospel Principles
On Sunday I taught the 12-13 year old Sunday School class. It was one of the best lessons ever. And it wasn’t because of me. Those youth are sharp and smart and they think about things. The lesson was on how Jesus Christ used everyday objects and experiences to teach people in parables. He would […]

Meet the Mormons
Long time followers of my blog know I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, more commonly known as Mormons. This week has been (and will be) all about my Mormon faith. I’m hoping it doesn’t drive some of you away. Sometimes it’s just good to find out more which is […]

I love this time of year when once again we prepare ourselves to listen to the words of living prophets and apostles of God. Last night women from all over the world gathered together as disciples of Christ to feel of His love for us. We were fed spiritually as we listened to wonderful words of […]

Elder Jeffrey R. Holland gave a wonderful devotional this past Tuesday at BYU-Idaho about the pursuit of happiness. In that devotional Elder Holland counseled, “Live the way happy people live. Walk the path that happy people walk. And your chances to find joy in unexpected moments, to find peace in unexpected places, to find the […]
Home as a Family History & Missionary Training Center
We’ve all seen it. Families are changing. It’s harder to keep the family intact with so much working against it. The National Domestic Violence Hotline says, “Nearly half of all women and men in the United States have experienced psychological aggression by an intimate partner in their lifetime.”1 Domestic violence statistics appear to be going […]
To Fill a Life
Our guest blogger today is Stephanie from The Mount Laundry News. You know that object lesson where the teacher has an assortment of big rocks, small rocks, sand, and -for the truly ambitious – water, that all has to fit in a jar? The idea is to teach that if we properly prioritize by putting […]
How to Simplify Outside Activities
My monthly family calendar reminds me of an air traffic control tower, with four kids circling around waiting to land, taking off late and trying to avoid mid-air collisions. Just like every other family I know, our schedule is intense. I think that finding the right balance has never been more difficult! There are so […]

The letter thanked them for their many meals provided for the missionaries that had served in that area, but especially for their example of family scripture study. While […]
