ComeUntoChrist.org - Come feel of Jesus Christ's love for you. He can help you find true Joy. Learn from His teachings, and Worship with us.
This Easter Weekend is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints General Conference. Starting on Saturday, April 3rd, and Sunday, April 4th, you can view this conference on TV and watch our living Prophet, President Russell M. Nelson, the 12 Apostles, and other church leaders speak to us of Christ and others' messages for our day. Here we learn of hope, faith, and how to come unto Christ, Learn of Him, Obey Him and Hear Him. Here is how you can participate in this grand moment.
As members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, we welcome all to join us in learning of our Savior's infinite atonement. His walk to Gethsemane, his trial, his suffering on Calvary, and His Glorious Resurrection.
His Three Day Gift - The Atonement of Jesus Christ is the greatest gift of Hope and Healing. We experience great moments of joy when those searching for truth recognize how the Atonement can bless their lives. President Thomas S. Monson stated, "Oh sweet the joy this sentence gives, I know that my Redeemer lives. May the whole world know it and live by that knowledge, I humbly pray." I, too, know that my Redeemer lives.
In the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus Christ took upon himself the Sins of the World. No one can understand what he went through, but our Savior did this for each and every one of us. Elder David A. Bednar of the Quorum of the Twelve apostles made this profound statement: "The Savior has suffered not just for our iniquities but also for the inequality, the unfairness, the pain, the anguish, and the emotional distresses that so frequently beset us. There is no physical pain, no anguish of soul, no suffering of spirit, no infirmity or weakness that you or I ever experience during our mortal journey that the Savior did not experience first. You and I, in a moment of weakness, may cry out, "No one understands, No one knows." No human being perhaps knows. But the Son of God perfectly knows and understands, for He felt and bore our burdens before we ever did. And because He paid the ultimate price and bore that burden, He has perfect empathy and can extend to us His arm of mercy in so many phases of our life. He can reach out, touch, succor-literally run to us and strengthen us to be more than we could ever be and help us do that we could never. Wishing you all a very Joyful Easter Celebration!
Here is an Easter Message by our Prophet, President Russell M. Nelson.
March 5th & 6th -
We have had a whirlwind of activity, starting with our Granddaughter Sariah and Alex’s reception on Friday, March 5th. They were married in the South Jordan Temple on Saturday, March 6th, followed by a luncheon. We felt so blessed to have most of our children there and some Grandchildren too. It’s been so long since seeing many of them. We tried social distance and masks. I did need hugs!
March 6th -
Family moments are the best! We had a few moments in the afternoon with the children and grandchildren that came for the reception. I'm sad I did not take more photos.
March 14th & 15th-_
Our oldest Son Sean asked us to come up for Heber and break our fast with them. Our family had a fast and prayer for my son. On Monday the 15th, he was scheduled at Huntsman Cancer Center for surgery for Basal Cell Carcinoma of the Neck. He requested to have his Dad give him a priesthood blessing on Sunday the 14th. Jackson, our grandson, joined in with giving the blessing. The blessing was reassuring. I knew that Sean would be Ok and that they would get all of cancer. The surgeon said they had to go deeper than planned but felt confident they could get it all. Part of the tumor was around one of the nerves, so they had to take that. He is doing well. He has some numbness but can use his arm and hand, so that is a big blessing. The main nerve was saved. I do believe in Priesthood miracles, and that was one.

This morning was a sweet one. Roger and I had the opportunity to be site Captains for the Feed Utah Drive through #JustServe. We were a little apprehensive due to weather concerns. We wondered if the volunteers would show up, protect the totes, and direct traffic.
After praying and especially for the bad weather to hold off for a few hours, the day for us started at 7:30 am. More than enough youth volunteers showed up. Once the traffic started, it didn’t stop until the last tote was filled to the top. There were 50 of them.
The miracle happened only a few sprinkles during the loading of totes. The big rain/snow storm didn’t come as predicted; I’m sure it was the answer to mighty prayer by many. A few tears were shed today! This was a tender mercy from the Lord!
March 22nd -
We had such a good time celebrating our Granddaughter Alyssa's birthday; she turned 17 years old. She is such a dear granddaughter, and it is hard to believe she now 17 years old. It was fun to be with them all. We could finally hug them and not wear our masks. It felt so good to be with our family for her birthday celebration.
March 28th -
Our 2nd oldest son Travis and Amanda, came down for the weekend. It was so fun to have a few moments with them.
Back Row Left - Ryley and Amanda, Travis with Layton, Kason and Haven, newlyweds, Austin and Shamra, Roger and LeAnn - We haven't seen this family as much the past year due to Covid. It was so sweet to see them and have hugs!
