Returned with honor… still figuring out the rest.
If you have ever served a mission, known someone who has, or watched a returned missionary awkwardly try to figure out normal life again, then this week’s theme, The RM, may feel familiar.
Between stake conference, service, youth activities, and preparing for Easter season, we are reminded of a simple missionary truth. The gospel keeps moving forward even when life after the mission does not go exactly according to plan.
Or as one RM might say:
“The mission was the easy part.”

🕙 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM
📍 In person at the Stake Center or Institute building
💻 Zoom link
Online meeting link removed from archive
All members and friends of other faiths are invited.
Stake conference is a chance to gather as a stake family, hear inspired counsel, and strengthen faith.
Think of it as the spiritual equivalent of a zone conference. Just without the role plays.

🤝 Ministering Reminder
A quick reminder to reach out to those you minister to this month.
A simple message, visit, or act of kindness can make a real difference. Sometimes the most meaningful moments happen through small efforts.
“People do not care how much you know until they know how much you care.”

March 9–15: “The Lord Was with Joseph”
Genesis 37–41
Joseph’s story shows what it means to stay faithful when life takes unexpected turns. Betrayed, sold, imprisoned, forgotten. Yet through it all the Lord was with him.
