The brand new San Pedro Sula Honduras Temple opened its doors for the public open house earlier this week.
No, this isn’t a post about Christmas--if it were, I’d be four months late. Bear with me until I make my point. Every Christmas my mom pulls out her “Christmas books.” I’m not kidding, it’s usually at least one full bookshelf worth of books – picture books for the grandkids to read; Richard Paul Evan’s latest Christmas book (he has one at least every year, doesn’t he?), and books sharing ideas on how to remember Christ during Christmas.

"On Sunday morning, Jan. 14, just over a week ago, the Council of the Twelve met in the upper room of the Salt Lake Temple in a spirit of fasting and prayer, under the presiding direction of President Russell M. Nelson, acting as Senior Apostle and President of the Quorum of the Twelve,” Elder Stevenson said.“In this sacred and memorable meeting, seated by seniority in a semi-circle of thirteen chairs, following a well-established precedent in unity and unanimity, hands were raised to first sustain the organization of a First Presidency and then to sustain President Russell Marion Nelson as the President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.”
The award recognizes the 100-year anniversary of the preaching of the gospel in South America.
Musician Wayne Burton has written a new original song titled “A Great Work” to correspond with the 2021 youth theme. This original song features Hanna Eyre, a favorite Latter-day Saint vocalist who is just weeks away from leaving for full-time missionary service.
Earlier this week LDS Living ran the article How to Transition to Post-mission Life with expert tips on how to make an RM's transition easier. But we'd also like to hear from you about how you or a loved one handled it. Was it similar to our article, or something more along the lines of Kirby Heybourne's character in the LDS film The RM (sleeping on food storage cans because your bedroom was given away), or maybe both?
