May 12th Weekly Connection

It's a Wrap.... What will you do with it now?

Happy Mother's Day

The young women took over for the sisters who serve in Primary, so they could attend Relief Society where everyone was pampered by the Relief Society Presidency, who served raspberry pastries and fruit, and Brittany Andam sang for us. The sisters were given some time to just sit and visit and enjoy each other.

Stephanie shared the personal question that she had going into General conference and how it was answered. Missy, Cristen, Tara and Alyssa all shared their questions and the answers they received.

Ministering to our Sisters

A Holier Approach to Ministering - Neil L Anderson


Ministering in the Lord’s Way. It takes time, conversations, and encouraging experiences that will help rebuild faith. It comes more like the dew from heaven than a one-time blast from a firehose. You have to minister again and again as you help someone turn back to God and again rely on the Savior and His Atonement.
____________________________________________________________________
The elders quorum president and the Relief Society president communicate important needs directly to the bishop and will receive counsel and direction from him.

"A new name, new flexibility, and fewer reports will not make one ounce of difference in our service unless we see this as an invitation to care for one another in a bold new holier way."  


Prayers for....
Charai has been continues to improve and hopefully be home in a few weeks.  Please keep the prayers coming.  

Please keep Cliff Dunston and Judy in your prayers.

Leslie Elmer is in Montana helping her daughter recover from a surgery. There's been some setbacks and hard things that they are dealing with and Leslie reached out to ask for prayers from her Saratoga Springs friends.  Please pray for her to have the strength and endurance to continue to help her daughter and family and that things may improve soon so she can come home.  She also asks if you want to contact her to do it through email as phone service is very spotty where she is at. Card and letters also welcomed: 239 Frontier Trail, Kalispell, MT 59901 - email to lifelmer@gmail.com  

Pray for those you minister to...

Do you know of anyone in need of our prayers?  Please contact a presidency member.
