Excellent articles for members and others. A lot of information that is uplifting, educational and most of all spiritual. I enjoy learning all I can before passing on to the other side. My health is questionable, first because of Multiple Myeloma, a different strain of the common cold that I could not beat, and now, after being released from the hospital, my immune system is very low as I now attempt to gain strength and not return to ICU. I’ve had three trips to the hospital by helicopter and do no recall either. That was disappointing because my youngest son flies the Apache helicopter and now fixed winged aircraft. As a private citizen.Although, we are pleased that he parked the chopper to stop a fifth deployment to Iraq and then Afghanistan. The whole family believed that his good luck was wearing thin. He is a bishop now in Texas and in the Reserves preparing groups to be deployed around the world. He finally received his next promotion to major after being acting major for so long. He told me that he was happy being captain. Those silver bars did look sharp. We all love the Lord and all church news.Thank you very much!

I’m so grateful for the restoration of the gospel! I am a convert so I’ve lived on both sides of the fence. I Know what we have been given from the restoration from the fullness of this gospel has truly Blessed my life! I left my family when I was 18 to come to Salt Lake with my 2 children to have the gospel and blessings I was seeking. I have experienced many hardships death of my son, and recently my Wonderful husband but because of our Savior unlocked the chains of death we will have Eternal life to be together again! The Book of Mormon is my strength which my sweetheart and I read everyday and has helped me understand why we go through the trails we do. I have many people in my family who tested positive for COVID 19 but because of faith and prayers we made it through! The priesthood is here, I’m so Grateful for Joseph Smith and all the other prophets who guide us! This too shall pass, we will claim Victory! Read Doctrine & Covenants 122:7

I love and enjoy reading it as we always had the Deseret News in our home remembering back at least 60 years and the Church News always came on Saturday enclosed in it. If I read it first and dad couldn’t find it, his response would be, “Go find your own teen magazine to read.” We didn’t have that kind of reading material in our home, the New Era, Friend, and Ensign being the only periodicals permitted besides Time and National Geographic. I very much love the written and printed word in my hands just as I do my scriptures and look forward to my copy of the Church News tucked away into our small town newspaper once a week.However, I still wished it came on Saturdays before the Sabbath.Perhaps, this may be a substitute and compromise for what I enjoyed😁♥️and still remember and cherish.

My great-great grandfather, Stephen Chadwick Perry, was at Joseph’s and Hyrum’s sides as they rode to Carthage. Stephen was on the same arrest warrant with Joseph, Hyrum, and Porter Rockwell. They asked Stephen to go back to take care of his family, and not continue with them to Carthage, because it was important that he protect his family.Generations later, my daughter is the ER head nurse in a large California hospital, where the first COVID-19 case in California was admitted. She and her 130 workers are today running trials of a treatment for COVID-19 patients. The treatment has been mentioned often by President Trump and Dr. Anthony Fauci of the CDC.Who knows if Stephen and his offspring were saved back then in order to run these trials of a drug that may save humanity from continuing to suffer from this COVID-19 pandemic?
