WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT
April 2025
Grace is a gift of God, and our desire to be obedient to each of God’s commandments is the reaching out of our mortal hand to receive this sacred gift from our Heavenly Father.”
Dieter F. Uchtdorf
May we each take time to consider the gift of His grace during this Easter season, worship our Savior, Jesus Christ, and do our best to receive the gift by increasing our desire to be obedient to God’s commandments….

Covenants With God Are Liberating, Not Limiting
Covenant keepers are blessed by God's Power. Keeping our Covenants liberates,
empowers, and brings us peace. President Russell M. Nelson has taught that "The
reward for keeping covenants with God is heavenly power -- power that strengthens
us to withstand our trials, temptations, and heartaches better. This power eases our way.
Those who live the higher laws of Jesus Christ have access to His higher power. Thus, covenant
keepers are entitled to a special kind of "Rest" that comes to them through their coventantal
relationship with God.

FROM OUR STAKE LEADERS
UKRAINIAN FAMILY IN NEED OF DONATIONS
Hello Marietta Stake,
I was just made aware of a service opportunity that I would love your help on. The SCC Harvest Church (Slavic Christian Church) is helping a Ukrainian refugee family that will be coming in town this week. It is a husband and wife and two girls ages 13 and 7 years old. They have a place for them to stay but they are in need of items to set up their house. They think they are going to be able to get a bed so they need sheets for a queen size bed, they need a washer and dryer and anything else that you can offer. Please let me know if you can help in any way. My number is 407/592-8155 or email sararose7@gmail.com.
Thank you so much!
Sister Sara Rose
Elder and Sister Echols have been assigned to work with the Institute program at UNG. They would like the names of students from your ward/branch that will be attending UNG in the Fall. They are trying to get a headcount and information. If you know of any students that are going to be at UNG this Fall (or share this request with your YW/YM leaders), please send the following information to Sister Echols at tigerlady1956@gmail.com

Friends!
Fall is here!
On Saturday 9/23/23 the Relief Society Sisters enjoyed an afternoon together
fellowshipping and crafting!
The October RS lunch meet up was held at the church and meals were prepared to be frozen and kept for when a sister or family has a need arise.
Thank you to all the sisters who helped with the service project either by donating ingredients and/or by helping to put the meals together. I hope you all had a great visit with one another and enjoyed the yummy lunch.
