New Presidency


Thomas S. Monson is the new President of my LDS Church, with Henry B. Eyring as First Counselor and Dieter F. Uchtdorf as Second Counselor. I testify that these men are true Prophets of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I know in my heart that i wll come to love President Monson as much as I have loved President Hinkley. This Church is True and I am forever greatful for it being in my life

MY Prophet


Today we buried MY Prophet, Gorden B. Hinkley. He has been the 15th President & Prophet of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I joined the church in 1996 and he had been the Prophet since March 12, 1995. Before I had joined the Church I was able to tour the not yet dedicated Las Vegas LDS Temple. I was joined by my Father and my Grandmother & my Children. Grandma and I went thru twice because we knew we must have missed something, little did I know that a few years later I would be escorted there by by wonderful husband, Mark. There are no words to describe my feelings there and on the many return trips we have made. I have taken my parents names there and my grandparents and their parents and their parents. I am proud to be the first member of my family to know the Church! President Hinkley will be missed but I know that I will see him again. God be with us till we meet again!! God bless the new President & Prophet. I KNOW this Church is true and am thankful for Prophets, Seerers and Revalators. I am so proud to be a member of the Church, I leave this in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen

Way of Life!!

How Do They Know?
A row of bottles on my shelf
Caused me to analyze myself.
One yellow pill I have to pop
Goes to my heart so it won't stop.
A little white one that I take
Goes to my hands so they won't shake.
The blue ones that I use a lot
Tell me I'm happy when I'm not.
The purple pill goes to my brain
And tells me that I have no pain.
The capsules tell me not to wheeze
Or cough or choke or even sneeze.
The red ones, smallest of them all
Go to my blood so I won't fall.
The orange ones, very big and bright
Prevent my leg cramps in the night.
Such an array of brilliant pills
Helping to cure all kinds of ills.
But what I'd really like to know...
Is what tells each one where to go!

There's always a lot to be thankful for if
you take time to look for it. For example
I am sitting here thinking how nice it is
that wrinkles don't hurt...
