Quote of the week

Beautiful faces are they that wear
the light of a pleasant spirit there;
Beautiful hands are they that do
deeds that are noble, good and true;
Beautiful feet are they that go swiftly
to lighten another's woe.
-McGuffy Readers (children will be memorizing this)

SCRIPTURE OF THE WEEK:

D&C 1:38 "What I the Lord have spoken, I have spoken, and I excuse not myself; and though the heavens and the earth pass away, my work shall not pass away, but shall all be fulfilled, whether by mine own voice, or by the voice of my servants, it is the same"

VIRTUE OF THE WEEK: Compassion (will be our virtue for next week as well)

Read! Read! Read!


"Books are better than television, the internet, or the computer for educating and maintaining freedom.
Books matter because they state ideas and then attempt to thoroughly prove them. They have an advantage precisely because they slow down the process, allowing the reader to internalize, respond, react and transform. The ideas in books matter because time is taken to establish truth, and because the reader must take the time to consider each idea and either accept it or, if he rejects it, to think through sound reasons for doing so. A nation of people who write and read is a nation with the attention span to earn an education and free society if they choose."
Oliver DeMille
