Relief Society Lesson - 9/12/10



Here is the Podcast for Sunday 9/12/10 Relief Society Lesson.

It is taken from Chapter 16 "The Church of Jesus Christ in Former Times"

During the lesson, a quote was given, and was requested by many. Here it is:


Faith is the power,
Obedience is the price,
Love is the motive,
The Spirit is the key, and
Christ is the reason.
[Japan Fukuoka Mission Motto, 1991–1994]

Humanitarian Aid Project - Sat Oct 23rd


Below are links to the same info on the church website. 

The info in the first link called "service project guidelines" is way more than what we're doing. So I need to specify that we will ONLY be working on the items under the headings called "Hygiene Kits" and "Orphanage Modules." We will NOT be doing the ones under the titles "Medical modules," "Newborn kits," and "school kits." However we are accepting any clothes for any sizes and any sex from newborns to teenagers. We are just not going to specifically attempt the entire "Newborn Kit." 

The second link called "toys" is for a list and guidelines of games and toys we'll be accepting. Also, we don't need anymore combs or bars of soap, we have a lot still in the R.S. storage. 

We will be taking the time from now until Sat. October 23rd to collect all items. On Sat. Oct. 23rd at 6:00 pm we will spend a fun night assembling and organizing the kits to be sent off to Salt Lake. 

If you can donate something but can't make it on Oct. 23rd, WONDERFUL. 

If you can make it to help out on Oct. 23rd but can't donate anything, WONDERFUL. 

And if you can't do either, you're still WONDERFUL. 

We are all in different stages of our lives and can't feel guilty because we don't do EVERY thing going on in our ward. Please at least take a 3 minutes to take a look at the link to the video I'm attaching  to appreciate how amazing our church is at quietly working miracles all over the world. It's true that this is Christ's church because this video is evidence of his work.

For donating items:
-You can drop them by at church on Sundays

1) link to list of clothes and hygiene items we're accepting


2) link to list of toys and games we're accepting


3) link to 3 min orphanage video in the Dominican Republic

Good News!!!

Podcasts are BACK!!! I have finally been able to find a different way to bring the podcasts back on the site. I have uploaded the past 2 weeks for everyone. Some additional good news is that these podcasts will not be up for only a limited time. So you should have the ability to go back to them and review them several months later. It's a good day :)

Podcast 9-5-10

This lesson discussion was taken from the General Conference talk: "When the Lord Commands"
Points that were emphasized:
1. We feel that the commandments don't apply to us
2. Thus commandment is not important
3. We feel the commandment is too hard to obey
