Elder Jeffrey R. Holland: The parable of BYU-Hawaii
Elder Jeffrey R. Holland of the Quorum of the Twelve told BYU-Hawaii’s graduating students that they must get over their insecurities and look to the future with faith. Elder Holland spoke to more than 200 graduates on Saturday, Dec. 17, in commencement exercises held in the Cannon Activities Center on the university’s campus in Laie, Hawaii. “First of all, it is incumbent upon us as students, as Latter-day Saints, and as children of God to see the divine potential in ourselves, to believe in ourselves to know that with God’s help there is quite literally nothing in righteousness that we cannot become,” Elder Holland said. “That is the parable of this school’s history and it ought to be the parable of your history.”

Fire focuses faith during LDS services in Idaho, Arizona
July's Fast Sunday was filled with expressions of faith and determination to press onward for members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints whose lives have been impacted recently by fire. "Fast Sunday" is what Latter-day Saints call the first Sunday of each month. The term comes from the monthly LDS practice of abstaining from food and drink for two meals and donating to a special church fund for the care of the poor and needy the money that would have otherwise been spent on food. Fast Sunday is also the day when local LDS worship services are traditionally unplanned, with the time that is usually allotted for sermons left open for members of the congregation to stand and share extemporaneous expressions of faith.
