    Good evening Parley’s 3rd Ward, Tomorrow is our November Fast Sunday. It is our prayer that we can “draw near” the Lord through our own fasting and praying.

As always, if tomorrow is not your assigned Sunday to attend, but you have desire to…

    Dear brothers and Sisters, For those of you that intended to view our sacrament meeting virtually today, I apologize that you were not able to do so. Unfortunately, we experienced some unexpected technical difficulties with our YouTube streaming.

We attempted to troubleshoot the issue unsuccessfully, and then tried to set up a Zoom meeting real-time. Zoom now requires passwords or manual admittance, things that we were not prepared for. Again, I apologize for the inconvenience. I know many of you look forward to being part of our meetings each week. We…
