As sisters in Zion, we'll all work together; The blessings of God on our labors we'll seek. We'll build up his kingdom with earnest endeavor; We'll comfort the weary and strengthen the weak.
The errand of angels is given to women; And this is a gift that, as sisters, we claim; To do whatsoever is gentle and human, To cheer and to bless in humanity's name.
How vast is our purpose, how broad is our mission, If we but fulfill it in spirit and deed. Oh, naught but the Spirit's divinest tuition Can give us the wisdom to truly succeed. --Emily H. Woodmansee.

Scritptures

I work with Primary in church. The theme for the year is "I know the scriptures are true." As part of the theme we have challenged al our children to read from the scriptures every day. I have also decided to rededicate myself. Buddy and Mary wake up every morning and do scripture time (they have been for a while), but now Anna brings me the scriptures and reminds me that she has to do it everyday. As I read over Loo's insights from Christmas it reminds me that God's words are available to help us in a very individual way, but they come more readily when we are dedicated to reading them.
