31. FREE CHRISTMAS MUSIC, (Sorry it is so late)

To begin this new post, I want to refer anyone interested to the newly published statement by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints of "Race and the Priesthood".  I have read it, and really enjoyed it.  You may find it here:

  http://www.lds.org/topics/race-and-the-priesthood?lang=eng    (copy)

I don't know why I didn't think of it before, but I want to offer free Christmas music to anyone who is interested. 

  I realize it is a bit late, only 2 weeks until Christmas Eve.  But if you are interested, perhaps you can get copies and save them for next year.  I have a lot of music I have arranged, and composed on an internet site:   www.musichousepublications.com  (copy and paste)  I have the copyrights, and I really love to give them free to anyone interested who asks me.  

 All of the music available on that site, I also have on my home computer in PDF files -- so if you have Adobe Reader, (which is free to download) you can print them out.  If you go to the website and want to listen to any of them, and don't have some program that plays the music to you, it tells you how to download it free so you can listen.  If there is any other music you'd like I'd be happy to e mail it to you free.   (Look under "Our Composers" and find my name -- Paralee Miles Eckman -- on that site.) 

 Also look under Free Sheet Music, and under 



 My e mail is:   paralee_eckman@infowest.com  

 You are welcome to share this with anyone you would like.  I just love for my music to be used!  Please e mail me with your requests.

 I have loved how Wilford Woodruff wrote "I went on my way rejoicing!" “And He Went on His Way Rejoicing”: Mental Health and the Spirit of God  By  Roger Connors  · June 3, 2022 As a mission president, you are constantly looking for ways to help missionaries cope with the anxiety and stress of life on a mission. While it can be incredibly rewarding, missionary work isn’t easy—particularly when life provides a surprise like a worldwide pandemic that literally increases the difficulty of missionary life in an instant. Add to that the normal challenges of mental and physical health that manifest at this age and the need becomes even clearer: mental health isn’t something you can just assume, it’s something you have to develop and maintain. [1] I remember being quite amazed at the missionary life of Wilford Woodruff. He participated in the difficult march with Zion’s camp, then chose to stay in Missouri to do missionary work. He was an amazing missionary, serving several missions

211. The Palmyra Temple -- The rest of the story -- (History)

Image
Subject: Palmyra Temple--Rest of the Story T We rarely know all the details of a completed temple.   Much goes on in the months and years prior to its completion.   The Palmyra, NY temple is no exception and the story is one of great vision, insight and the Lord's intervention . The story starts years before, perhaps years before anyone thought to build a temple here.    In 1907 Apostle George Albert Smith purchased a portion of the original Smith farm for $16,000.   In 1915 he sold it to the Church for $1.00 and President Joseph F. Smith called Bro Willard Bean and wife Rebecca on a 5 year mission to manage the farm and be the first stationary missionaries in the area since the Saints removed to Ohio in 1830.  They served here for 25 years! making numerous improvements to the farm,  softening the attitudes of the local residents, helping the Church to acquire more of the farm, and even the hill we now call the Hill Cumorah.  The Hill Cumorah pageant had its beginnin

How appropriate this is for July 24th, in just 3 days!  This is for all you readers who have pioneer ancestors , or you are a pioneer in your own family, or country.  You can send in your own story! Today I begin a training period so I can go back to our local Family History Center, and be a volunteer to help others.  From about 1992 to 2011, I volunteered, and 2 times served a 1 year mission there.  But since then, there are so many new things in technology that I need to catch up!   I took a class recently on how to upload photos and other memories on to Family Search, in Family Tree, and I have had so much fun doing that!  Both Wayne and I have had health problems over the last year or two, but we are at a time things are going better, and I want to get back to one of the things I love most -- FAMILY HISTORY, AND GENEALOGY! ! !
