February 10th Lesson

Ward Conference

For our Relief Society Meeting during ward conference we had speakers from the stake relief society presidency and stake presidency.

Our theme for ward conference was Moroni 10:32
"Come unto Christ, and be perfected in him..."

The first part of the lesson focused on the theme. I encourage us to go back and review this scripture and think about what it means to Come unto Christ. Along with coming unto Christ for ourselves, it is important for us to invite others to church and Christ.

Sister Allen spoke on her experience running a marathon and related it to the gospel. Her journey through training for her marathon turned into a spiritual journey. Things the marathon taught her were...
*We can't make it through this life alone we need others and we need Christ.
*Pray to the Father-what is important to us is important to Him.
*Endure to the end-there are people who love us along the way cheering us on!

We had a beautiful violin solo with a medley of the songs I feel my Saviors Love, I'm Trying to be like Jesus, and Our Saviors Love.

Brother Allen spoke more on the importance of coming unto Christ. He talked of a man he and his companion converted on their mission. He fell away later and through other missionaries was able to renew his testimony again. Even if we have accepted the gospel and turned away it is possible to return to the Savior. His arms are always stretched out waiting for us to return to Him. The gospel will change our lives if we let it.
