That We May Be One

Sadie shares how the righteous influence of her brothers influenced her decision to serve a mission, how living far from a temple helped her appreciate it so much more, and how God provided a community to help when their son was in the NICU.

Welcome to this episode where we get an introduction to the new Relief Society Presidency: president Brooke Sonne, First Counselor Kara Emerson, Second Counselor Nichole Mace, and Secretary Patrice Fry.

With the incoming presidency, we give our enormous gratitude to the outgoing group (which just happens to include most of the new presidency!) But thank you, thank you to Helena Guymon for her consecrated service. I know her time jut happened to coincide with a lot of physical and temporal needs in our ward and I firmly believe she was just the right woman for the job! And of course thank you to Kara, Nichole and Brooke for their service with her as well – you ladies are all rock stars!

Tricia talks about how her faith grew by joining the church in her teens, dealing with difficult medical issues with her daughter, and helping and watching her sister go through some very challenging life circumstances.

Eileen shares how her faith has grown through joining the church in her early 20s, participating in callings, seeing the Lord place job opportunities in her life, making temple covenants and turning to her patriarchal blessing for strength.

This year's graduating senior Kayla shares her interests and plans as well as her testimony.

Sharly shares how her faith has grown from a gospel-centered childhood, trusting in God as she chose to serve a mission, in the midst of challenging pregnancies, and through the recent Grand Blanc, Michigan church shooting.
