Our second baby boy was blessed. Here is the blessing that was given.

Three and a half years ago Peter was blessed at two months old in our chapel in Cedar Hills Utah in front of our ward and with a large circle of priesthood holders that included friends and family. Theodore got a different and quite unique experience. He was blessed at four and a half months old in my parent's home with only 18 people physically present, and four families participating through a video chat. All of this is because of the COVID-19 pandemic situation. We've been wanting to bless him since March but with lots of new rules about distancing and limited numbers of people, we found ourselves in this strange situation. However, the works of God will not be halted, and as soon as we could have 20 people present we blessed him. Andrew blessed him. Here are the words of his blessing. Our Father in Heaven, by the authority of the Melchizedek priesthood which we hold we come together to give this baby a name and a blessing. The name that he will be known by throughou...

The Dawn of a New Era

Last Sunday we had the Stake Presidency in our Sacrament meeting. The Stake President got up after the Sacrament was passed and started his talk by stating we have a great ward and bishopric. He also stated that now that its a new year we have many opportunities to expand and grow. Then he said that by the authority of the First Presidency he will dissolve the Park 11th ward.

When the Stake President made the announcement I was very sad, but it wasn't until he released me that I started bawling. I was so depressed that without warning I no longer had a calling. I felt so different being the  Young Women's President. I felt like I was guided by the Spirit far more than whe...

The Priesthood and The Holy Ghost

As a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, there are a lot of perks and benefits. For instance, the second after you are confirmed a member, you get this guide called the Holy Ghost. This guide is always with you and is there to help... guide AND teach. It tells you what is right or wrong, it prompts you of what should be done or where your should go, and it helps other people who  may not be members understand what is trying to be taught to them. It is an amazing blessing to have this guide. In church today we learned a few things of what having this guide really means. Not all people who have this guide understand how it communicates. It does not use a voice or even Morse Code, it uses the users own body and their emotions to communicate. Since this is the standard form of communication, many people get lost in translation or get mixed  signals. I know when the Holy Ghost is trying to talk to me by the feelings I get (usually a burning of the...
