“Your commitment to follow the Savior by making covenants with Him and then keeping those covenants will open the door to every spiritual blessing and privilege available to men, women, and children everywhere.” —President Russell M. Nelson


Sacrament Meeting



Dane Matthews talked about one night on trek reading his scriptures and receiving inspiration that the Book of Mormon is true.


Jacqui Bennion shared about her pioneer heritage  She shared her scripture reading experiences and challenged us to read the Book of Mormon everyday as we have been counseled.



Ben Chase of the Stake High Council shared how everyone has different levels of faith. We all face trials. We need to allow the Book of Mormon to be a source of strength for us. There are promises if we read it daily.
