March 2023 Ministering Handout

Hi everyone! The old March winds have blown in along with more SNOW! I know we need it here in Utah…but could it please just snow up in the mountains and not on my driveway!!! :)

This month for the March 2023 Ministering Handout, I chose a quote from President Russell M. Nelson. But I found it in the talk from President Ballard, titled “Follow Jesus Christ with Footsteps of Faith”.

There are several things going on in my life right now that are making me think about how strong my faith is and ways that I can increase my faith. So I have been dwelling on this quite a bit lately. Continue reading →

Hey everyone, it is time for the February 2023 Ministering Handout!

I hope all of you are just a little bit warmer than we are here in Utah! It is freezing this week! It just makes me want to stay home and curl up with a good book all afternoon. (I may need a nap also!) Continue reading →

Jan. 2023 Ministering Handout!

I love January and the new BEGININGS! I am not one to make a lot of resolutions, but I do like to start new things and learn new things…this year is no different. Are you as excited as I am to learn more about the Savior’s life in the New Testament?

This month, for the Jan. 2023 Ministering Handout, I have chosen one of Pres. Nelson’s talk from last conference, titled: “Overcome the World and Find Rest”

Merry Christmas everyone! Hope you enjoy the Dec 2022 Ministering Handouts!

This time of year is always so crazy hectic for me. It seems like we have all of our activities the first week of Dec! After that I can usually settle in a little more and enjoy the holidays. I know that some of you have a hard time with the holidays and I totally get that. It can be a wonderful time and it can be a very difficult time. I pray that whatever situation you are in that you will feel the love of the Savior and that he can warm your heart.

This month I chose a talk from the 2011 Christmas Devotional by President Thomas S. Monson.
