February 2015 Visiting Teaching Message

February's visiting teaching message is all about the sinless nature of Jesus Christ.  Elder D. Todd Christofferson said, 
… The power of His Atonement can erase the effects of sin in us. When we repent, His atoning grace justifies and cleanses us. It is as if we had not succumbed, as if we had not yielded to temptation.
We can have hope that when we err, we can be forgiven.  



Christ's atonement can give us strength and enables us to carry on during difficult times.

I'm thankful for the perfect life of Jesus Christ, and for His atonement, which brings peace to my heart.

      The Atonement really is the central event in history; without it, there is no purpose.

Six Sentence Story: Twist

  An antique typewriter Each week, Denise at Girlie on the Edge blog posts a prompt word and invites bloggers to come up with a Six Sentence Story. It's a fun challenge for writers, and a delight for readers. Go over to her blog to read what others have written, and feel free to post your own story, too! This week's prompt: twist. ********************************* The kids who moved in next door were big kids--much older than her 3-year-old self--but they might be fun to play with, and as they were coming towards her, the idea of them being new friends seemed at least possible. She was rather shy, but she understood the basics of making friends, so when those neighbors crowded all around her and asked her what her name was, she didn't hesitate to answer.  She thought she had spoken loudly enough, but apparently her shyness got the best of her, because they didn't seem to have heard her.  "Twisty?" they asked, and recognizing she needed to be even louder, she ...
