Save the date. We will be having a ward campout at Erwin Park on May 5. We will also be having a Ward Cinco De Mayo party that evening. All are invited to come and attend. More details to come.
The kickoff fireside for our summer Nauvoo Trek, is in one week - Sunday April 23 at 7pm at the Frisco Stake Center. All FSY aged youth are invited to attend. It will be a wonderful evening full of music and testimony all led by the youth of our stake. It would be wonderful if all could be in their seats by 6:45PM. The reason is that we will be having some of our youth play piano numbers for the prelude and would love it if most are able to hear them as they have prepared so diligently and it would be a great way to prepare for the rest of the fireside.

Members who want to attend the Dallas Texas Temple to perform proxy ordinances now have the option to either schedule an appointment or attend without an appointment, where space is available.
As priority will be given to members with appointments, those who attend without an appointment may be asked to wait for an opportunity to participate. As it has always been, appointments will still be necessary for all members who come to receive their own ordinances (endowment and sealing).
You are encouraged to attend the temple as often as your circumstances allow.
You can reserve an appointment on https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org, in the Member Tools app, or by calling the temple. Also you may now schedule multiple appointments for any ordinance in any temple.
Heat & Wildfire
From heat exhaustion and stroke to roaring wildfires, there are many dangers in times of extreme heat. Stay vigilant and know the warning signs.
