JANUARY 2011 PRESIDENCY MESSAGE
Dear Sisters,
As we plan for the coming year, our presidency is focused on priorities. Where, above all else, do we give our time? The Relief Society Motto points us in the right direction.
"We are beloved spirit daughters of God, and our lives have meaning, purpose, and direction. As a worldwide sisterhood, we are united in our devotion to Jesus Christ,our Savior and Exemplar.
We are women of faith, virtue, vision, and charity who:
~Increase our testimonies of Jesus Christ through prayer and
scripture study.
~Seek spiritual strength by following the promptings of the Holy Ghost.
~Dedicate ourselves to strengthening marriages, families, and homes.
~Find nobility in motherhood and joy in womanhood.
~Delight in service and good works.
~Love life and learning.
~Stand for truth and righteousness.
~Sustain the priesthood as the authority of God on earth.
~Rejoice in the blessings of the temple, understand our divine destiny, and strive for exaltation.”
Elder Donald L. Hallstrom taught that when members live by their convenant and not by convenience, that their lives are directed toward their heavenly home. We pray this coming year will be one of growth and strengthening for each of us.
Love,
Jamie, Cindy, Loree, & Kathy
