I talked about this phrase back HERE, some beautiful words from our church leaders to let others in to our lives. I hope those around us who are not in our church congregations will “love, share and invite” right back. We have so much to learn from each other! The first presidency of our church…
Remember this app I talked ago a while back? I am loving it. Each day there is a new beautifully outlined thought from the weekly “Come Follow Me” program. There are also all kinds of links if you want to go deeper into your study. Each day there is a 2-minute devotional from someone new….
Last week in Relief Society (our class at church), I was able to listen to the best lesson. It was all about the refining fires of trials. I thought of “beauty for ashes,” one of my very favorite phrases from the poetry of Isaiah. To me it is just so encouraging to think that beauty…

I am writing from Claire’s President’s Day volleyball tournament where she’s reffing for a few games before hers begin.
