If you have any old photographs or memories that you'd like to share with the ward, please email them to James Gates (gatesjd@gmail.com) within the next couple of weeks. 

  • November 2023 - The Orchard Stake has asked each ward to organize a group or groups with the emphasis on Emotional Resilience. This course will provide guidance in establishing healthy thinking patterns, managing stress and anxiety, understanding sadness and depression, overcoming anger, managing addictive behaviors, building health relationships, and strengthening others. These classes are for educational purposes only, not group therapy or professional treatment for mental health. They are encouraging all members to participate if they can.
    The course could start in November, but we will be more specific later with dates. We are asking anyone who is interested to fill out this short survey to gauge interest and availability: Survey Link 

Primary & Youth Upcoming Events

  • If you missed this week’s education devotional with Elder Christofferson, the Bishopric is inviting every teenager in the ward to watch the devotional with their parents and develop their own personal education plan. We know you will be blessed as you follow through with this invitation. We will be discussing this topic together on October 29th during our second hour youth meeting. 

  • Thurs, October 5 - FSY Registration opens. We will not be registering as a stake to attend FSY in 2024.  However, all youth in our stake who will be turning 14 by December 31, 2024 should plan to attend an FSY session.  In a letter from the church dated September 7th, “We encourage every eligible youth to participate and hope that parents and leaders will give high priority to preparing youth through stake FSY activities held before and after the conference.” The letter said.  “We know this experience has the potential to bless the youth, their families and their classes and quorums.”  Please follow the link as it will answer most of the questions. answers-to-questions-and-timeline-for-fsy-conferences-2024
