Our Responsibility

SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY
Doctrine & Covenants 4:1-7
"Now behold, a marvelous work is about to come forth among the children of men. Therefore, O ye that embark in the service of God, see that ye serve him with all your heart, might, mind and strength, that ye may stand blameless before God at the last day. Therefore, if ye have desires to serve God ye are called to the work; for behold the field is white already to harvest; and lo, he that thrusteth in his sickle with his might, the same layeth up in store that he perisheth not, but bringeth salvation to his soul; and faith, hope, charity and love, with an eye single to the glory of God, qualify him for the work. Remember faith, virtue, knowledge, temperance, patience, brotherly kindness, godliness, charity, humility, diligence. Ask, and ye shall receive; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. Amen."

QUOTE OF THE DAY
Gordon B. Hinckley
"It is not enough just to live, just to survive. It is incumbent on each of us to equip ourselves to do something worthwhile in society?-to acquire more and more light, so that our personal light can help illuminate a darkened world. And this is made possible through learning, through educating ourselves, through progressing and growing in both mind and spirit" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Gordon B. Hinckley, p.238-239).
