- KYKory YeagerOct 26, 20255.0Great ward!
- JHJoseph HeilnerNov 2, 20245.0Went here as part of a disaster relief team of helping hands in the aftermath of Huricane Milton. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints descended on the area from a wide area and this church haded out a broad range of supplies from chainsaws and rakes to gloves and masks for mucking out water damaged homes. Spending a weekend chainsawing is extremely therapeutic for me so I fel grateful to serve alongside so many selfless servants of Jesus Christ just simply trying to help. We had one homeowner, himself a very large and somewhat intimidating figure, break down and cry in gratitude for my team of volunteers.

This verse from the Book of Mormon reflects our beliefs in Christ: “And we talk of Christ, we rejoice in Christ, we preach of Christ, we prophesy of Christ, and we write according to our prophecies, that our children may know to what source they may look for a remission of their sins” (2 Nephi 25:26).

Yes. Very much so. It’s the word of God, a sacred volume of scripture, and required reading for a happy life. Along with the Bible, we also find inspiration in other books of scripture unique to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They all work together to teach us important truths about Jesus Christ.

What can I expect at your Church worship service?
The Church meeting always starts with a welcome and announcements from one of the lay leaders. Next, an opening song by the congregation and prayer offered by one of the members is followed by another hymn while the communion in remembrance of Jesus Christ is prepared and distributed to those who desire to receive it. Then, one or two of the members of the congregation (including youth and children) give talks--sometimes a musical number is performed by a member of the congregation or choir. The lay leader gives some brief concluding words followed by a closing song and prayer.
On just the first Sunday of each month the members of the Church fast for the poor and needy. Instead of speakers, a few members of the congregation choose to share their feelings with the others about Jesus Christ and how grateful they are for him.
