Transfers April 2017

It may not be on the mountain height

Or over the stormy sea,

It may not be at the battle’s front

My Lord will have need of me.

But if, by a still, small voice he calls

To paths that I do not know,

I’ll answer, dear Lord, with my hand in thine:

I’ll go where you want me to go.

[Chorus]

I’ll go where you want me to go, dear Lord,

Over mountain or plain or sea;

I’ll say what you want me to say, dear Lord;

I’ll be what you want me to be.

Become an optimist!  

Joy is a choice!  "When the focus of our lives is on Jesus Christ we can feel joy regardless of what is happening in our life."  - Elder Russell M. Nelson

Thank you Sweet Sisters who provided lunch for us.

The scriptures are filled with committment invitations from Heavenly Father and our Savior Jesus Christ who long to bless us.  They offer beautiful promised blessings as we are willing to act in faith!  ASK and  YE SHALL RECEIVE!  KNOCK and IT SHALL BE GIVEN UNTO YOU!  We broke into groups and found invitations and promised blessings.  Here are just a few:
