Starting today, October 11, we will no longer have a sign-up to attend sacrament. We invite all to attend, following the safety protocols President Platt outlined in his email to the stake (wearing masks, socially distancing, staying at home if not feeling well)
If you would like to continue to hold sacrament in your home, please reach out to Bishop Schofield about sacrament authorization.
Stay tuned for additional information on a possible online broadcast of our future sacrament meetings
We are starting to plan more regular youth activities, starting with 1 or 2 per month

We hope you continue to have faith building experiences as you study Come, Follow Me. We would like to invite you to download and use the church's Living app to share your thoughts and impressions, especially during this time when meeting together each week is not possible.
Sharing your spiritual insights through the app is simple – open the app on your device, click on "Circles" in the bottom right, then select the group that is most relevant. For example, you can select "Adult" to share with all adult members of Sunday School.
We look forward to reading what you have to share! Thanks,
Brother Dold, Sunday School President

Catching the Vision of Self-Reliance
Health: Because we are created in the image of God (see Genesis 1:27), our bodies are temples and should be treated with care and respect (see 1 Corinthians 3:16–17). The Word of Wisdom, found in Doctrine and Covenants 89, is the Lord’s code of health and was revealed to Joseph Smith in 1833. It teaches that we should eat nutritious foods and avoid harmful substances. Apostles and prophets have since taught that we should shun all substances or practices that harm our bodies or minds and that could lead to addiction.
