Bishopric message

Dear Parley’s 3rd Ward,

We hope this finds you healthy and in good spirits!

It’s been over 4 months since we were able to last meet together. Our last sacrament meeting was March 8th. The invocation was offered by Dave Holbrook, sacrament hymn #187 “God Loved Us, so He sent His Son,” and the outgoing Primary Presidency addressed us…Carly Briggs, Katie Jardine, Jamie Peters & Natalie Smith. Our closing song was “We thank Thee, O God, for a Prophet,” and the benediction was given by Josh Thompson. Since then, there have been amazing in-home sacrament services.

A few weeks ago, Gabriella Bernardes was baptized. She is the newest member of our ward. Welcome, Gabi! We are pleased to hear Gabi’s testimony this week.

Please remember to continue to reach out to those who may be lonely or struggling. Sometimes we don’t realize the far-reaching impact of a kind word, a text, a phone call, a greeting.

Please also remember to nurture your own testimonies through daily prayer and scripture study. D&C 50:24 “That which is of God is light; and he that receiveth light, and continueth in God, receiveth more light; and that light groweth brighter and brighter until the perfect day.”

There is still so much good in the world in spite of the current challenges of our day. Thank you for your goodness. Thank you for your kindness. Thank you for your examples. Thank you for being dear friends, neighbors, brothers and sisters in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We love you and pray for you.
