Sisters,
It’s been
wonderful to celebrate the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ and bring in the
New Year with a renewed hope in the gospel and in ourselves. I’m sure
many of you, after having the opportunity to reflect upon the Saviors birth and
his life, brought with you new commitments coming into the New Year to be more
like him, to emulate him and to have your actions reflect your beliefs.
The topic
of discussion for Presidency lessons this year will be focused on women in the
scriptures. It will be a great opportunity to learn of these women, their
strengths, and their weakness and find ways to emulate their examples in
righteous living. It’s my hope that this year we will be able to
strengthen, even more so, our relationships within our Ward sisterhood by
finding joy in our individuality, personalities and talents, and strive to lift
one another through encouragement and positive interaction.
I have a
scripture taped to my cupboard (along with several others) to remind me of what
my actions should reflect daily. Philippians 1:27 “Only
let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I
come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand
fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the
gospel”.
I hope we
all can add this to our resolutions this year, to become more united in our
Sisterhood and that our actions will reflect our beliefs.
May the Light
of Christ radiate through all that you do.
Love,
Shelly Ward,
Secretary
