🦁🐑 This Weekend — Stake Primary Activity! 🐘🦒

We’re excited to see our Primary children this weekend as we journey through the Old Testament together on Saturday, June 6!

Don’t forget to bring a new stuffed animal to donate to children in a local hospital. Help us fill the ark with stuffed animals that will bring smiles to children in need.

Do you see what we see?

If you look closely you can read the inscription “ Holiness to”. The phrase Holiness to the Lord House of the Lord,
is something we see on Latter-day Saint temples all around the world.

"And thou shalt make a plate of pure gold, and grave upon it, like the engravings of a signet, Holiness to the Lord" (Exodus 28:36).

🎓 Congratulations to all of our Seminary Students🎓

President Henry B. Eyring said:
“There are three powerful things seminary can do. First, it puts young people together who share the same values. Second, it puts youth together with a teacher who has a testimony, and they can feel the fire of it when it is borne. Third, seminary gets young people into the scriptures.”

We congratulate all of our seminary students for completing another year of seminary and celebrate with the dedicated graduating students who have completed four years of faithful study.

Their commitment to studying the gospel of Jesus Christ, has strengthened testimonies, built faith, and helped prepare strong disciples of Christ. 💙

Thank you, KidsPack, for giving our Youth the opportunity to serve and assemble food kits for children in our community. 💙

Service helps us follow the example of Jesus Christ as we learn to love and care for one another.

1 John 3:11
“Love one another.”

Jeremiah 23:4
“I will set up shepherds over them which shall feed them.”🤝

The Lakeland Stake youth joined together for a day of Christlike service and love for our community.

Parents and youth collected donated food items, and assemble KidsPack food kits that will help provide over 950 meals for children across Polk County.

We are so grateful for these amazing youth and their willingness to serve others with happy hearts and helping hands. Their example reminds us that we can be shepherds over the Lord’s precious sheep.
