Nov 2024 Ministering Handout

Nov 2024 Ministering Handout

Welcome to the month of Gratitude!  Fall is finally in the air here in Utah and as a result I am a happy camper!

This month I chose gratitude for the theme! 

And I concentrated on being grateful for a living prophet.  I used the prophet’s talk that he just gave in the Oct 2024 General Conference.  It is titled “The Lord Jesus Christ Will Come Again”.   Didn’t you just LOVE this talk?  I am so excited for when the Savior comes again…I just worry about what more we will have to go through before that happens!  But President Nelson assures us that “The Best is Yet to Come!”

Oct 2024 Ministering Handout

Hey everyone!  Happy October!  I love the fall time with the cooler weather and the leaves changing colors and that it is finally sweater weather! 

However, here in Utah…it is not quite sweater weather yet…it has been in the 90’s!!!  But we will get there.

Sept 2024 Ministering Handout

Happy September everyone!  Are you ready for fall?  I know I am.  We have had a very hot summer and I am ready for a cool down!  

This month I found a fun little item at Trader Joe’s and knew that I wanted to use it in my ministering handout.  It is gummy Bacon and Eggs…and no they do not taste like bacon and eggs, they are cherry and mango!  They are sooo yummy! Continue reading

August 2024 Ministering Handout

Well, here we are “Rollin’ into August!  Where does the time go?  I guess it just flies by when you are having fun, right?! 

August is always a busy month with back to school, last minute vacations, canning, and yard work, but I love it!  I have been having fun with my yard this year with the flowers that I planted from seeds in my greenhouse last winter.  I have learned a lot and it seems like gardening is a lot of trial and error…but that is what is fun about it!

July 2024 Ministering Handout

July 2024 Ministering Handout

Happy July everyone!  Hope your summer is going great!  We are HOT here is Utah, but what do we expect when we live in a desert?!

I love July because we get to celebrate the freedom of our country on the 4th and we also get to celebrate the Pioneers coming to Utah on the 24th!  Two fantastic reasons to celebrate!  I have my flags out in my flower pots,

I am waving my star quilt in my house,

and I got to attend our little local parade last week with the flag leading the way!  We have so many reasons to celebrate our freedom. Continue reading

June 2024 Ministering Handout

June 2024 Ministering Handout

Let the Summer begin!  I am ready…are you?

This month for the June 2024 ministering handout, I chose the talk from Susan H. Porter: “Pray, He Is There”.   Don’t you love this quote:

“When you know that Heavenly Father is real and that He loves you, you can live with courage and hope!” 

Given that it’s summer, I wanted, sunshine-inspired colors to brighten everyone’s day.

Another month has already gone by, which means it is time for the May 2024 Ministering Handout.

May always seems to be such a busy month, and it is holding true for us again this year.  Besides all of the end of school activities, we have a wedding, lots and lots of doctor appointments, spring cleaning and remodeling, and baseball games!  Whew!  Busy but exciting times.  Continue reading

March 2024 Ministering Handouts

Where oh where did February go????  It just seemed to slip by in the blink of an eye and it is already time for the March ministering handouts! 

Easter is in March this year, so I knew that I wanted to do something with a quote on the Atonement of Jesus Christ.  Here is what I came up with…not one quote…but two!  Continue reading

Jan. 2024 Ministering Handouts

Well…hello new year! 

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas season, and you are now ready for a NEW YEAR!  I love new beginnings and new possibilities!  It seems like a great way to start out a new year!  In a world filled with despair and wickedness, with problems and pain, we should strive more than ever to have hope.

So, for my Jan. 2024 Ministering Handouts I wanted to bring out the value of hope!  This is going to be my word or emphasis for this year.  We all can strive to have greater hope!

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”
