Today I have the first visiting teaching handout for 2015! Can you believe that it is 2015!! I am still trying to get myself back into a schedule and get organized for the new year, how about you?

This month the message for visiting teaching from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, is: The Attributes of Jesus Christ: Obedient Son.

There are a couple of different quotes in this message and both of them are excellent…but I chose the one from D. Todd Christofferson…”As we walk in obedience to the principles and commandments of the gospel of Jesus Christ…” I love the part, “Obedience gives us greater control over our lives, greater capacity to come and go, to work and create.” It is true that the more obedient we are the more control we have in our lives.

Here are the printable cards: Continue reading →

How is everyone doing this Monday morning? Did you all have a great Thanksgiving? I hope you did…my husband and I went to Park City to a wonderful restaurant for our Thanksgiving dinner…it was delightful! All of our kids went to their in-laws this year, so this is our off year! I did cook a turkey breast for our Sunday dinner, so my husband can now have his leftover turkey sandwiches! :)

This month for the visiting teaching message for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, it is called “The Divine Mission of Jesus Christ: Prince of Peace”. I cannot think of a better message for the month of December! I chose to highlight the scripture; John 16:33, where the Savior himself is talking to us. Continue reading →
