This kid loves his mission.
He loves the Navajo people.
Nothing in life can be greater than watching your child serve people. I thought watching him play football made me proud. Nothing even close to his service.
He keeps growing too. 6’8 and counting! lol.
Good luck feeding him.
I feel immense personal gratitude for the privilege of rededicating the historic St. George Utah Temple today at the invitation of President Russell M. Nelson. I consider this one of the sweetest and most rewarding assignments I have had in my years as a General Authority for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
This marvelous edifice holds a special place in my heart. Five generations of my family—including my parents and Pat and I—were married for eternity in this temple. Furthermore, I was baptized here at age eight and endowed here at age 19. I couldn’t love any other spiritual home more than I love this one.
Pat was so thrilled when this project was undertaken and even more thrilled when we got the assignment to participate in its rededication. But even though she has gone ahead on her own spiritual journey, I believe she was surely allowed back for this event. I am confident many in the congregation today had loved ones attending from the spirit world.
We love and cherish our dedicated temples and the essential, exalting ordinances that are performed there. We thank heaven that more of them are being built, giving each of us greater access to them. Temples of the Lord are truly the holiest, most sacred structures in the kingdom of God.
Utah fan @StatueOfWhitt posted a video on Twitter Wednesday labeling characters from "Parks and Recreation" as Pac-12 schools. USC and UCLA, represented by Ron Swanson, ask the other employees who broke the office coffee machine, labeled "Pac-12.”https://t.co/klPwCe9EYp
As you make decisions about your life and your family—or your future family—please remember that the ultimate treasures on earth and in heaven are our children and our posterity. I give thanks to a loving Heavenly Father who has blessed me with a family I love dearly.
My dear brothers and sisters, you have a divine birthright and the potential of eternal life. That is what our Father in Heaven and His Son Jesus Christ offer you. They love you. Above all else, They want you to choose to come back home to Them.
I get it we don’t all like the calls made in a highly fast & competitive game… we don’t always like the way they influence the outcome… but at some point can we ever just step back as reasonable ppl & say, “I can see why they called it… and probably an ok call based on rules”?
Expect joy. If my 98 years of life have taught me anything, it is that true joy comes by living in harmony with the teachings of Jesus Christ. I have never met any who were happier because they broke their covenants with God. Wickedness does not and cannot lead to happiness.
Zach Wilson is judged differently because he was a high draft pick. Wilson is 5-2 as a starter this year and his play hasn’t been great. He has 4 TD passes and 5 ints and QBR of 45.1. But what if I told you a QB with similar results is receiving adoration? A thread (1/9)
@CriddleBenjamin So disappointed with some BYU fans. When did we get so AFRAID of competition. “Don’t do X because we might lose and end up with a losing record. Don’t play Y and just stay home.” MY HELL…what happened to PLAY ANYONE, ANYWHERE, ANYTIME win or lose?
@CoachPPeterson@CriddleBenjamin A blow out of UT does nothing. Yeah, bowl eligibility, but hollow. Doesn’t mean team is playing great. Play a tough team now, next week, and always. Better your program.
