April 2019 Ministering Handout
Happy April Everyone! Is everyone as ready for Spring as I am???? I love the warmer weather even though we still have rain/snow days here in Utah…at least the sun shines in between!
For this month I thought that I would do an Easter thought for the ministering handout.
Love this Easter quote by Elder Uchtdorf, so this is what I went with.
This thought comes from the talk, “The Gift of Grace”. If you have time, click on the link to read/re-read this talk. It is a very uplifting talk and reminds us of the hope of the Easter Miracle!
One of the paragraphs that really talked to my heart is this one:
“I marvel to think that the Son of God would condescend to save us, as imperfect, impure, mistake-prone, and ungrateful as we often are. I have tried to understand the Savior’s Atonement with my finite mind, and the only explanation I can come up with is this: God loves us deeply, perfectly, and everlastingly. I cannot even begin to estimate “the breadth, and length, and depth, and height … [of] the love of Christ.”
May we all remember the Grace of Christ and his heroic Atonement. That he overcame death so that we all have the opportunity to live again!
Here is the printable card.
For those of you that would like to print as a jpeg, simply right click over the image. Go to “save image as” then save in a folder. You can print from there.
And a blank card for those of you that would like to translate. Or if you need a note card, handout, or cute invite!
As always, please remember that all of my handouts are for personal use only…they are not for resale!

That is my April 2019 Ministering Handout.
I just added a fun bag of Easter candy and tied it up with a cute ribbon. You could do a fun Easter Lily, Easter eggs, an Easter decoration, or anything spring. You know the needs of your sisters, so hopefully you will be able to do something that will mean something to her!
As always…please remember that it is your sisters that are important…not the handout. Make sure your sisters know how much you love and care about them!
Thanks for Visiting…Happy Ministering!

I have been using your thoughts for years. When my ministering sisters changed, I heard from many how much these monthly thoughts meant to them…especially from those who don’t attend Church. Thank you for providing such a wonderful missionary service! It’s appreciated by many!

Rita, you are so awesome in so many ways!!! I wish I lived closer to you so a little of your amazing talents would just rub off on me. you inspire me. Thank you for sharing your talents with us. The sisters I visit and now the ones I minister love your handouts. Thank you again.
Kathy, You are welcome! Thank you for the time you spend with the sisters you visit! I am sure that they all love you! Thank you for your kind comment, it brought tears to my eyes! Happy ministering!
Thank you for sharing your lovely gift. If I want to include a different message from yours, is it possible to add it to your blank card and print it off? If so, how do I do that?
Thanks for the many years I have benefited from your goodness and creativity!
Rebecca, You just have to import the image into any word processing center. You can then add your text and format it any way that you would like. Hope this helps.
Rita – I have been following you for years, 1st as visiting teaching coordinator and now as ministering secretary. I refer my ministering sisters in the ward to your site and display images and ideas of how they can group them with a small gift. And like you, I stress that it is the ministering that is most important. Thank you so much for sharing your time and talents in this and in the many other areas of your life. You are multi-talented and I look forward to your entries. So GLAD to hear that things are beginning to settle down for you and your family. Continued prayers that all will be well.
Allie,
Thank you so much for taking the time to write your kind comment. It meant the world to me! I appreciate all of your efforts to help the sisters in your ward. You are a great example to me.
I am grateful that things are starting to settle down too! We have had many blessings and miracles and can definitely see the Lord’s hand in our lives! We feel so blessed.
Hope you have a wonderful day…Happy Ministering!
P.S. Happy Easter!
