December Visiting Teaching Message

Nurture through Compassionate Service

"To help another human being reach one's celestial potential is part of the divine mission of woman. As mother, teacher, or nurturing saint, she molds living clay to the shape of her hopes. In partnership with God, her divine mission is to help spirits live and souls be lifted. This is the measure of her creation. It is ennobling, edifying, and exalting" ("Woman—Of Infinite Worth," Ensign, Nov. 1989, 22).

Please go here for the entire message to share with those you Visit Teach this holiday season!

*New Enrichment Class* Provident Living


Now more than ever is the time to come together as saints and learn those skills we have been constantly advised to learn by our Prophets. We are adding a new class titled "Provident Living". Topics will vary with occasional activities. Everyone has something to offer concerning this subject whether you are an expert canner or excellent couponer everyone can serve others by sharing their skills for Provident Living. It has become evidentally necessary to come together as sisters in the gospel if we are to weather this economic storm and help one another through. What better way then share our knowledge and help where needed?!

Join us Thurs. November 19th!!

First meeting:

Thursday November 19th

7:00 to 8:00 pm

Sister Robin Scott's Home

495 Bliss Ave.


Everyone is welcome!!



"But living providently is more than just putting aside food for future need. It encompasses all areas of life. If we want to face the future with confidence and peace of mind, we must prepare ourselves in six areas: literacy and education, career development, financial and resource management, home production and storage, physical health, and social-emotional and spiritual strength. When we strive to prepare in these areas, we can enjoy peace of mind as we face the uncertainties of the future."-Provident Living: A Way of Life,” Ensign, Aug 1987, 35
