Sabbath Day

From the RS lesson today...
Personal Sabbath Survey:
1. What blessings of the Sabbath are important to me?
2. What activities seem to take away the Spirit of the Sabbath for me?
3. What activities help me feel the spirit of the Sabbath?
4. What could I do before Sunday to make the Sabbath a more delightful day?
5. What problems arise on Sundays that could be eliminated, or handled earlier, with more careful planning?
6. Make a commitment to enjoy the Sabbath day more by ___________________.

 "I love the Sabbath Day from the moment I wake and know that it is Sunday, until the end of the day when my testimony has been strengthen and that I am ready for another week.
It has not always been my favorite day, I put in a lot of years going through the motions trying to just be obedient. Now my Sabbaths are full of good things."  (Sister Donise Price)

Personal Revelation

I was late arriving today but I understand Sister Kristin Collins daughter, recently returned from her mission in Brazil, was with us as was Sister Regina Pangerl's daughter.    Welcome! Welcome! Sister Barnes' sacrament talk was a perfect introduction to our Relief Society lesson today!  Sister Joanna Beck reminded us of the importance of having the Holy Ghost in our lives as she reviewed two Conference talks with us.  Elder Larry Wilson's talk "Take the Holy Spirit as Your Guide" and President Russell M. Nelson's talk "Revelation for the Church, Revelation for Our Lives" were the Conference talks reviewed. Elder Wilson's story of Ensign Frank Blair provided a real-life example for how we can receive the Spirit's guidance more frequently in our own lives.  The FIRST GUIDELINE we learned is to receive revelation we must properly tune our receiver to heaven's frequency.  Sister Beck asked what that meant to us.  Kristen Winter said h...

Personal Revelation

Sister Collin's daughter-in-law, Kenzie, was able to visit with us today from Sandy, Utah. We were small in number today so visitors were a happy site! We also welcomed Kim Hoffman today who recently moved into my neighborhood! Kim comes to us from the same ward as the Easton's and the Flams. I feel bad for that poor ward but we are definitely being blessed! Kim and her husband Art have a blended family of six children.  "Does God really want to speak to you? Yes!" Today's lesson taught by  Rebecca Lund Olmedo  focused on the process of personal revelation. President Nelson's conference talk was the backdrop for our discussion. President Nelson explains why receiving personal revelation is so critical to us. "In coming days, it will not be possible to survive spiritually without the guiding, directing, comforting, and constant influence of the Holy Ghost." Several sisters; Sister Trina Murphy, Sister  Becky King , Sister  Vernita Granger  and Si...

Today we had the familiar face of  Sydnee Inman  (now married) in our midst as they were down looking for possible places to live when they move back to Arizona the beginning of next year! Mamma  Rachael Bonnell Inman  couldn't resist doing a little happy dance! We were also able to enjoy the familiar faces of our recently released Primary presidency;  Linda Hill ,  Jennifer Hammond , and Cherice Rigby. There were lots of changes last week and I don't remember them all but I remember  Jennifer Hammond  is our new RS Presidency secretary as she was sitting up front! Welcome sisters! We hope your transition will be a smooth one!" Have I done any good in the world today? Have I helped anyone in need? Have I cheered up the sad and made someone feel glad? If not, I have failed indeed. Has anyone’s burden been lighter today Because I was willing to share? Have the sick and the weary been helped on their way? When they needed my help was I ther...
