MONDAY MEMO June 10 - 15
Good Morning dear Sisters!
I have always loved hearing men's voices singing - a little Josh Groban, Harry Connick Jr, even some Bar J Wranglers. The sound I heard at last night's Stake Priesthood Meeting gave me more chills than Michael Buble can. I was filled with awe and gratitude for the strong, faithful and powerful men that surround us in this stake. As they sang the chorus of "Hope of Israel" ....rise in might, with the sword of truth and right, I felt assured of the sacred trust these men hold to honor, protect and defend women and children and families.
This coming weekend we have the opportunity to honor the good men in our lives. Let's make sure they know of our love and appreciation for the many ways they honor their priesthood.
I hope you are enjoying your summer, and that your gardens are growing and your air conditioners are in good working condition!
Next week's Memo will be through the Lindon 11th Relief Society Blog. Did you even know there was one?
Much love to you all!
jNae

MONDAY MEMO June 2 - 8
Good Morning dear Sisters!
In our Proverbs 31 woman lesson yesterday I shared a quote from Sister Nadauld's conference talk called "The Joy of Womanhood." I learned yesterday that the quote I used was added to her talk at the last minute because she needed to fill more of her time. Isn't it interesting that that quote is the part of the talk we all remember? Here it is again:
Women of God can never be like women of the world. The world has enough women who are tough; we need women who are tender. There are enough women who are coarse; we need women who are kind. There are enough women who are rude; we need women who are refined. We have enough women of fame and fortune; we need more women of faith. We have enough greed; we need more goodness. We have enough vanity; we need more virtue. We have enough popularity; we need more purity.
Que Sera Sera ;-)
