May 2023 Ministering Handouts

Happy May to Everyone!  Hope you are all doing well and enjoying Spring.  That is, if it is Spring where you live!  Here in Utah, we are finally getting some warm weather, but our state is in great danger of flooding with all the snow melt!  Yikes!

This month for the ministering message, I wanted to honor all women in honor of Mothers Day.  So therefore,  I chose President Nelson’s talk, “A Plea to My Sisters”

I am sure that many of you will remember this talk.  It was given in Oct 2015 Conference. Continue reading

Flower Thought

Today I thought it would be fun to do a Flower Thought!

I have been out working in the yard planting flowers and the garden.  The weather has been wonderful…until today!

It has turned off cold today and the weather forecast is saying to cover our tomatoes and tender plants!!! 

It is the middle of MAY…for heaven’s sake…and we are having a frost warning!
flower thought

Don’t you love this little thought.  

As women we tend to compare ourselves to each other and we need to stop doing that and  “JUST BLOOM!”

With spring in full bloom and summer just around the corner, there are going to be lots of flowers blooming everywhere.  I hope that when you look at those flowers, you will remember this thought and

 Bloom Where You Are!

On another note, my husband and I just got back from a little trip to Las Vegas.  We went to a Celine Dion show and to LeReve.  Both were really good shows and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!  The weather was warm and it felt good to get away together for a few days!  We also spent a few days in sunny St. George before coming home!  I love going on road trips with my husband.  He was my own personal chauffeur to quilt shops, malls, eating out and sight seeing!

Thanks for Visiting!  Remember to blossom today!
