Dear Sisters,
Today’s lesson came from the following General Conference talks:
The Reason for Our Hope By President Boyd K. Packer
Free Forever, to Act for Themselves By Elder D. Todd Christofferson
Approaching the Throne of God with Confidence By Elder Klebingat

We have our agency and we can choose everyday to apply the Atonement in our lives and receive the blessings that come from doing so.  We have agency, therefore we make mistakes.  Those mistakes require repentance of us. 

Elder Christofferson says, “My plea is simply to take responsibility and go to work so that there is something for God to help us with.”

Announcements:  Needy Families for Christmas- Beginning today, in the High Priest room, there will be slips of paper with gift ideas for needy families in our ward.  If you would like to help someone within our ward boundaries, feel free to pick up a piece of paper.

Dear Sisters,

This week our lesson was given by Sister Shelby Hansen on missionary work and hastening the work.   Elder Ballard tells us that one of the reasons that we hesitate to do missionary work is because of fear. “With the help of the Lord, let me remove any fear you or any of our full-time missionaries may have in sharing the gospel with others. Make the decision to do what Jesus Christ has asked us to do.”  We had a great discussion about fear and how some of the sisters have worked to overcome their fear. Sister Hansen also referenced Elder S. Gifford Nielsen talk and showed the following videos: Sharing YourBeliefs We Are One

 Next week is Stake Conference. Please plan to attend the adult and youth (age 12+) session on Saturday night at 6:00 and the general session on Sunday morning at 10:00. This will be broadcast to our building.
