DECEMBER PRESIDENCY MESSAGE

This year our theme has been D&C 88:119: “Organize yourselves; prepare every needful thing; and establish a house, even a house of prayer, a house of fasting, a house of faith, a house of learning, a house of glory, a house of order, a house of God.”

At this time of year when things seem to be ever more crazy and hectic, we are reminded of the Glory of our Savior!  We too can be glorified like the Savior.  It is the direct result of what we do with this life.  The fruits of our labors will either be good or bad, bitter or sweet.  The harvest we speak of will be what we've sown in this life.  To have part of God's Glory in the next life we must do that which adds to God's Glory in this life.

The Savior of the World came just like each of us, a babe with all the potential for good or evil. And like Jesus, by partaking of that which is good, we increase in power and glory.  We can use that power to perform miracles and help those around us.  By doing His work, we also sanctify ourselves and make ourselves like the Savior.  We can inspire others by our good, just like the Savior did.  By using our power for good we add to God's Glory and further ‘Establish a House of Glory’.  Let us focus on the glories around us this season by striving in our lives and homes to have a ‘House of Glory’.

We want to wish you a wonderful holiday season and many blessings in the New Year!

                                                                       With Love,

                                                                              Jennifer, Tiffiny, Yvonne and Breann
