Happy Valentine's Day!
"We are created in the image of our heavenly parents; we are God's spirit children. Therefore, we have a vast capacity for love—it is part of our spiritual heritage. What and how we love not only defines us as individuals; it also defines us as a church. Love is the defining characteristic of a disciple of Christ." - D...ieter F. Uchtdorf, "The Love of God," Ensign, Nov. 2009, 22See More

February Message
Dear Sisters,
As I was reflecting on our visiting teaching conference messages, I am so grateful to be a visiting teacher. I am also thankful for visiting teachers who take the time to come and visit with me. Even though schedules can sometimes be difficult to arrange, when something is important you make time for it.
I recently came across a quote from Bonnie D. Parkin that I liked. It says, "We are Visiting Teachers because we've made covenants with the Lord, and they are fulfilled as we share our hearts and our souls. Visiting teaching is all about family. As we show charity to those we serve, we become family by affection. We all belong to the Lord's family and when we serve sisters, and through them their families, we strengthen the family as designed in the heavens."
This leads us into February where we are focusing on marriages and families. There are so many forces out there to destroy the family that we need to concentrate on keeping our families whole and safeguarded from the world. Elder Bednar said, “We can become more diligent and concerned at home as we are more faithful in learning, living, and loving the restored gospel of Jesus Christ." I especially like the phrase, "More diligent and concerned at home." Our homes are the one place where we can control what is coming in and where we can make the most difference in our family's lives.
It is my prayer that we all focus on keeping our houses in order (D&C 88:119) and unspotted from the worldly influences that can pervade our daily lives.
Lovingly,
Lacee Lemmon
