MESSAGE FROM TYLER STAKE PRESIDENCY

Beginning Wednesday, May 11, members of the stake presidency will conduct temple recommend interviews in the Tyler stake center in Bullard rather than the Shiloh building. A member of the stake presidency will be available each 2nd Wednesday of the month in the stake center office from 7 - 8 p.m. for temple recommend interviews.

Also, temple recommend interviews may be conducted on Sundays in all 6 buildings when a stake presidency member is visiting your ward. Simply inquire with the stake presidency member to determine if any interview time is available that day.

Great Weekend in Store

Whether you are able to be in Salt Lake for Conference, watch at your church or stay home and watch on TV or the Computer, you are in for a treat! The telecast is on Saturday and Sunday from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm and from 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm Central Time Zone. You can attend at the church, lds.org or it will be broadcast on the BYU Channel.

This weekend might also be a great time to check you 72 hour kits for expired items. Smoke detector batteries also should be changed out every six months.

There are a lot of items that can be downloaded from the internet that are centered around Conference to keep your kids engaged.

Give the youngest one a squirt gun and let them get the first one that goes to sleep! They will be very popular among their siblings:0

Most of all, just relax, recharge your spiritual batteries and love the ones your with.

Sister Nell Evins is in The Bonner Place Nursing Facility in Jacksonville. She is still recuperating from her accident a few weeks ago. She loves to have visitors. She is in room #213. Nell has such a sweet disposition. She does get discouraged from time to time, but she really enjoys visitors. There isn’t much she can do with her time. She can’t read because she doesn’t have her glasses. It is difficult to watch TV because of the neck brace and the position of the TV, so she does enjoy it when someone comes to visit. I appreciate those of you who have taken time to visit with this sweet sister!

Today’s RS lesson was given by Gay Odom referencing: Boyd K. Packer, “The Weak and the Simple of the Church,” Ensign, Nov. 2007, 6-9. It was very enlightening and she pointed out to us what he said about...no member of the Church is esteemed by the Lord as more or less than any other. All positions in the Church are filled by members and we all have the opportunity to sustain or to oppose the action. Each member is responsible to accept the call to serve. No matter how inadequate we may feel, we need to accept the calls that are placed before us. It is through the weak and simple things of the world that great things are brought to pass. And so the Church moves on. It is carried upon the shoulders of worthy members living ordinary lives among ordinary families, guided by the Holy Ghost and the Light of Christ, which is in them. I can absolutely testify to you of the truthfulness of that last statement, as anyone who accepts a call and tries their best to accomplish something worthy of our Heavenly Father’s approval...weaknesses can and will become strengths. Please take time to read and study President Packer’s talk. It will help you in many ways.

This year we are focusing on Provident Living. There will be several quarterly meetings centered around this subject. We also want to let everyone know we are concerned about food storage and want to make it to where everyone can participate. Hopefully these reminders will help you to at least try to work on your food storage. For the month of January we are focusing onBaking Soda. You will need 1 Lb per person, per year. For the month of February our focus will be Sugar or Honey. You will need 60 Lbs per person, per year. We will be watching the sales and try to post on the blog and announce each Sunday where you can purchase for the best price.
