MIRACLE OF 10,000 ON EASTER SUNDAY (APRIL 17TH)

The full-time missionaries and the President of the Salt Lake City West Mission have invited our ward to participate in the "Miracle of 10,000".  They are asking that each ward invite 125 friends per ward with the goal of having 25 attend Sacrament meeting on Easter Sunday. This inspired effort of the “Miracle of 10,000” is so named because when we have 25 friends attend each ward Sacrament meeting across the 60 stakes in the Salt Lake City West mission, that will be over 10,000 people who attend that day! This can happen with fasting, prayer, sincere desire and effort (faith).

Bishop Cox would like to extend an invitation to be prayerful about who you might invite.

April 19th– Temple & Family History Meeting (7:00 p.m. on Zoom)
