True Awe...

Thanks to an amazing and determined mother-in-law who truly believes in the power of art and music in touching lives and changing the world, FRESNO will be the host of the traveling “Reflections of Christ” photography exhibit. If you’d like a preview of what you will experience, and “experience” is the best word for it, go to http://www.reflectionsofchrist.com/ OR just click HERE. http://jesus.christ.org/
The exhibit will be on display in the Fresno West Stake Center (3375 W. Sierra), from Nov. 29 thru December 3. My understanding is that there will also be a fireside on the evening of November 29th. Certainly it's worth a mark on your calendar whichever day or days you choose to attend. Ooh! I am SO excited!!

This is just one of the amazing photographs Mark Mabry crafted.

I have spent countless hours during the last 4 weeks preparing for our upcoming Enrichment dinner. Each of our board members carries quite a load as there are only 3 of us and that includes our newly called 2nd Counselor in the Relief Society Presidency. I managed to volunteer for the “message” aspect of our evening and have sought so much insight and inspiration in directing this part that I think there were days I was so busy working on it, I forgot to feel it. I was reminded during Stake Conference last week that the Reflections of Christ exhibit is coming and during a free moment I caught today, I looked it up again. It only took seconds for me to feel its power and the testimony that is integral to my life – that truly Jesus Christ is our LORD and SAVIOR. He is the REDEEMER of the world. The greatest sacrifice in the world was out of the greatest love for every person this world has seen. It’s individual. It’s real. How blessed we are. To do all He asks is certainly the least we can do. I have felt an overwhelming gratitude today.

I have to say "way to go!" the video that you made for Enrichment was beautiful. I felt the message very deeply. It was perfect. I loved working with you on creating such a wonderful enrichment night. I can't wait for the next one. Thanks for being such a great leader!
