Dear Stake Members,
At this sacred time of year, we want to reach out and thank each of you for sharing your goodness and light with those around you. From the time we were called to the Stake Presidency in January, we’ve witnessed that goodness throughout the year in so many ways. We’ve marveled at how much you care for each other, your neighbors, and our community as a whole. Thank you for caring. Thank you for seeking to understand the needs of others rather than judging them. It truly is a blessing to see you serving as the Savior would want us to serve. So, thank you!
This Christmas season, we want you to receive all of the warmth, strength, and peace that comes from turning our hearts and minds to the Savior Jesus Christ. He is the source of light that we all need in these challenging times. The Savior’s miraculous birth reminds us that hope is available to all of us. His life, including His infinite atonement, stands as an example of His love, grace, mercy, open arms, and a plea to “Come unto Me” no matter our past or present circumstances. His death represents the unfailing love that He has for each one of us. And finally, His resurrection brings life to that which once was dead.
Each of us has the opportunity this Christmas season to enrich our lives and the lives of our family, friends, and neighbors with added hope, forgiveness, love, and new beginnings. We invite you to turn your hearts more fully to Jesus Christ. Spend time with Him. Learn of Him. We promise that, as you do so, He will fill your heart with light and love for others and you will find peace. Merry Christmas!
With love,
President Pebbles
