Elders Quorum Topic for November 14, 2021

 Hello Brethren,

The topic for this Sunday's Elders Quorum discussion is the April 2021 Conference talk "The Temple and Your Spiritual Foundation" by President Russell M Nelson.

Recall that we have also started discussing how we are doing as individuals and as a quorum with the Work of Salvation and Exaltation described in the general handbook. Tomorrow we will discuss "Sharing Resources, including Church Assistance, with those in need" under Caring for Those in Need..

Please consider how you can add to the discussion of these two topics in our quorum this week!

Elders Quorum topic for September 26, 2021

 Hello Brethren,

The topic for this Sunday's Elders Quorum discussion is the April 2021 Conference talk "God Among Us" by Elder Uchtdorf.

Recall that we have also started discussing how we are doing as individuals and as a quorum with the Work of Salvation and Exaltation described in the general handbook. We had a glitch two weeks ago and missed this part of the discussion, but tomorrow we will discuss "Learning and teaching the gospel of Jesus Christ at home and at church" under Living the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Please consider how you can add to the discussion of these two topics in our quorum this week!

Elders Quorum IN-PERSON lesson topic for June 27, 20201

 Hello Brethren,

We will again meet in person for Elders Quorum meeting tomorrow, June 27. The topic for discussion is: "I Love To See The Temple" by Elder Eyring from the April 2021 General Conference. This is a timely message, as we have missed being in the temple for so long and the Jordan River Temple has just gone to phase 3 - meaning we can perform all ordinances by appointment. 

It was so good to be together two weeks ago in quorum meeting. There is a wonderful Spirit present as we return to in-person church. We hope to see all of you there!

President Hillman

We will start 10 minutes after our 9:00am Sacrament Meeting ends.

Day of Service - Saturday, April 17

 Brothers and Sisters,

We have a long tradition of a Day of Service every Spring when we gather as a neighborhood to help one another with outdoor projects to repair, maintain or beautify our homes and yards. 

We have identified a number of projects that need our attention on our upcoming Day of Service. Obviously, the more people who come to serve the better. So please reserve the date if possible - Saturday, April 17. We will begin at 8:00am. Additional details will follow, but for now just be aware of the date and plan to come help if possible.

Few things feel better than helping someone else.

Thanks!

President Hillman

This is the man I talked about in Sacrament meeting today that was born without arms and legs and I promise that he will be worth staying up to watch. (His talk repeats Thursday at 8am if that works better for your schedule) And since he did such a great job at organizing these better than I ever could I'll just also include these links that the Sake President sent in his email earlier: There are four key areas of RootsTech Connect that I wanted to call to your attention: 1. RootsTech Connect classes, speakers, and events Classes will begin live-streaming on Wednesday night at 9pm. Content will be rebroadcast and available on demand. There will be some great keynote speakers. You can review the main stage streaming schedule, and the list of classes you can join.

"Our Quest for Connection" for Youth and Young Adults Check out the youth page for RootsTech titled "Our Quest for Connection". There are two main activities focused on youth. The first is a series of 10 fun "Challenges" that connect us all with our past, present, and future, and make great youth activities. The second is the wrap up event specifically for youth hosted by Elder David A. Bednar that is Saturday at 1pm on ChurchofJesusChrist.org. 3. Family Discovery Day Session Join Elder Jeffrey R.

Watch anytime beginning Thursday on ChurchofJesusChrist.org. We hope that all members of the stake will join us in participating in RootsTech. See you there (virtually)! Do you feel overloaded yet? Are you actually still reading this long email? Good job-That's why we love you! It's obvious my dear friends that this is important and something that the Lord wants us to participate in, these resources have been given to us to help move the work of Salvation forward and to help us find the door that opens this work up to us. With so many classes available I guarantee that one of them (if not many more than just one) will be the one that gets you started on a wonderful journey of service, testimony building and blessings without end in your life. This conference and it's recorded classes will be a wonderful resource for Family Home Evenings, Youth activities, Sabbath day activities and something fun to share with others. Please do all you can to participate even if it's to just watch one talk, open one class to view, make one search, start one challenge...Thank you! Have a wonderful week.-- Sincerely,  Bishop Howard Jackman
