SPONSORED: Arnold Friberg: Book of Mormon Classic Art

Nephi subduing his brothers, Abinadi testifying to King Noah, Samuel preaching from the city wall — these scenes ground scripture stories in a compelling visual world as we study the word of God.

Touring in St. Petersburg: Gospel Light Glows in Life of Russian Family
Boris Leostrin stands out in a crowd, and not just because of his 6-foot-2 height. His whole countenance reflects joy in the gospel as he speaks of raising his family in the Church. Brother Leostrin, second counselor in the St. Petersburg Russia Stake, was born and grew up in the sparkling port city on the Baltic Sea. The 35-year-old manages and arranges tours, guides and transportation for tourists, but he revels in showing visitors the city's gems himself — gems such as palaces of the czars and the gloriously restored Hermitage with its world-renowned collection of art. "St. Petersburg is my city, and I love it!" he said.
Mormon purchases soccer team, saves it and becomes Costa Rican celebrity
Near the end of 2012, the soccer team Club Sport Herediano was in a time of serious financial tribulation, and Herediano's ownership began to seek someone to buy the team. David J. Patey and his brothers, Mike and Mark, fit the bill. David, 36, was born in Israel but raised in Utah. He is one of 11 children. In 2003, he moved with his wife and two children to Costa Rica primarily to learn Spanish, but also to run his company, Costa Rica Consultants, a firm that specializes in private, high-volume mortgage loans to the Costa Rican market. Since then, his family of four has grown to seven.

LDS Artist Helps Sandy Hook Victims' Families, Others Cope with Tragedy
On Dec. 14, 2012, David Bowman was going about his normal routine, visiting the bank and running errands. It wasn't until a friend from Texas called him that he realized a tragedy had taken place at Sandy Hook Elementary School and that a drawing he'd created years earlier was providing comfort to thousands of people.
A Mormon Circus Christmas
One of the oddly lovable aspects of the circus is the way they can incorporate any figure from fairy tale or myth into their grand parade and have the audience accept it enthusiastically. When I worked as a beginning clown with the Ringling Brothers Blue Unit in 1972, we had Santa Claus atop an elephant, riding jovially around the arena waving with mittened hand at the crowd during the hottest July anyone could remember. No one seemed to think this at all strange, or out of season. Santa with the circus? Where else would the old gentleman spend his summers? Santa was played by a paunchy Bulgarian acrobat. He had no idea who Santa was, so when he was asked by the show's director to exhibit some hearty holiday spirit he could think of nothing better to do than to bellow "Hello dere!" to all the excited children.
