Scripture of the month

And moreover, I say unto you, that salvation doth not come by the law alone; and were it not for the atonement, which, God himself shall make for the sins and iniquities of his people, that they must unavoidably perish, notwithstanding the law of Moses.

Mosiah 13:28

Thought of the Month

"Think of it! when his body was taken from the cross and hastily placed in a borrowed tomb, he, the sinless son of God, had already taken upon him not only the sins and temptations of every human soul who will repent, but all of our sickness and grief and pain of every kind. He suffered these afflictions as we suffer them, according to the flesh. He suffered them all. He did this to perfect his mercy and his ability to lift us above every earthly trial."

Howard W. Hunter
"He is Risen," Ensign, May 1988

Day 8... a bit of a longer post

There's a story behind this one so bear with me...
I'm so grateful for the little things the young women have taught since I started my calling as YW president...especially today.
Part of lesson today was a movie clip that the girls had to watch. The clip happened to be in Spanish with English subtitles. One of my girls struggles with dyslexia and was struggling to read the subtitles. So the YW sitting next to this girl just starts reading (whispering) them to her. I was moved to tears while witnessing this tender, kind act of service. 
There is so much we all can learn from our youth if we'd just slow down, observe them, and listen.
