Leadership Message
THE HEALING POWER OF GRATITUDE
Peace, perspective and healing. Just 3 of the blessings we can enjoy if we follow President Russell M. Nelson’s prescription.
Last year the prophet prescribed two activities to help us experience the healing power of gratitude. First, he invited us to flood social media with gratitude. Second, he asked us to pour out our heart in gratitude for the countless blessings God has given us, in daily prayer.
The healing and blessings he promised can still be claimed.
Showing gratitude:
soothes our feelings.
provides us with a greater perspective on the very purpose and joy of life
helps us feel happier
helps us feel more at peace.
prayers of gratitude can bring forth miracles.
gratitude has healing power.
If you could use these blessings in your life, I invite you to apply gratitude therapy in your life and watch for the promised blessings.
Thank you for taking the time to read this. :D

Tithing Settlement
As faithful members of the Church of Jesus Christ, we are asked to obey the law of tithing. The law of tithing is simply stated as one-tenth of all of our income. When faithfully practiced, the law provides us with innumerable blessings and promises. We receive both spiritual and temporal blessings.
Malachi shares the promise of the Lord. "Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.
"And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the Lord of hosts" (Malachi 3:10-11).
President James E. Faust said, “One of the great blessings the people of this Church have is to meet with the bishop once each year, settle their tithing, and report that what they had paid in contributions constitutes a tithe."
Bishop Cox will begin meeting with individuals this week to take advantage of this important declaration. Please click on the link below to schedule a time to meet with Bishop Cox.
