Highest Priority

"In 1999 the First Presidency and the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles lovingly stated: 'We counsel parents and children to give highest priority to family prayer, family home evening, gospel study and instruction, and wholesome family activities. However worthy and appropriate other demands or activities may be, they must not be permitted to displace the divinely appointed duties that only parents and families can adequately perform." President Dieter F. Uchtdorf, July 2008 Ensign.
~A few weeks ago in California a letter was read by our Bishop penned by the Prophet, President Monson and the First Presidency. The letter was about protecting marriage as between a man and a woman. It was instructed that we give what we can, financially and in time for this upcoming voting issue and to get involved by the "protectmarriage.com" website (endorsed by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints). You may want to visit the site to learn more no matter where you reside.
