Dec 2023 Ministering Handouts

Dec 2023 Ministering Handout

Happy Holidays everyone! 

Hope all is well and you are filled with the Christmas spirit! 

Our family is getting started with our annual Sinter Klaas Party the first weekend of December.  It is always a fun way to welcome in the Christmas season.  This tradition started after our oldest son came home from his mission to The Netherlands and we have been doing it ever since!  We have had to change up what we do to adjust for the ages of our grandchildren, but everyone seems to love it and we don’t have to compete with the other families for a date!!

Nov 2023 Ministering Handouts

Hey, everyone welcome to November!  I love this time of year when the weather is a little cooler and you can enjoy being outside…even if it’s to do fall cleanup in the yard!

A little tidbit about me, that you probably don’t know…we installed a greenhouse this last summer and I am learning all about planting and propagating and I am hoping to start a lot of my flowers from seed this winter!  I am not doing a vegetable garden, I am doing a cut flower garden.  I love it and I have a ton to learn!  That is why I enjoy being outdoors.

Anyhow, the message this month is about having gratitude in our circumstances.  Pretty sure that a lot of you remember this talk, given by President Dieter F. Uchtdorf...”Grateful in Any Circumstances”

Hope you are all enjoying your summer and that you are getting to spend time with your family and friends!

April 2023 Ministering Handout

Hey everyone!  Hope you are all doing well and enjoying a beautiful Spring.  Here in Utah, it is still winter with more snow in the forecast!!  Ugh!  But I am excited for all the water and we definitely need the moisture, so I guess I need to quit complaining!

This month for the ministering message, I have had a song playing over and over in my mind.  So, I decided that I needed to incorporate it into my message for this month. Continue reading

March 2023 Ministering Handout

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

Dec 2022 Ministering Handouts

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.

Nov 2022 Ministering Handouts

Hey everyone, I am so excited about the Nov 2022 Ministering Handouts!  The message this month comes from the ENTIRE Oct 2022 conference talks! The idea for this handout comes from my good friend, Becky Burgess Eastmond.

Because she is the one that did all of the work putting all of these conference quotes together!  As a result, you get to benefit also!  Thank you so much Becky, for letting me share your talents here on Pink Polka Dot Creations. Continue reading

June 2022 Ministering Handout

I would like to welcome summer with my June 2022 Ministering Handout!

It does not feel like summer yet, here in Utah.  We have had rain and even snow up in the mountains this week.  But we really need the moisture, so nobody is complaining!

Because I grew up in Pleasant Grove, UT, I always think of strawberries in June!  Our town celebrations were called Strawberry Days.  I have some fond memories of my grandpa Jensen coming from Canada and taking us to the carnival…and always buying us a bowl of strawberries and cream! 

Thus the handout idea for this month!
