Upcoming: Strengthening Your Marriage Class

Brothers and Sisters,

The Strengthening Marriage Class will be taught Sunday evenings from 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in the Relief Society Room at the Stake Center from October 19, 2014 through November 23, 2014.

This course is designed to strengthen every marriage and prospective marriage. You will learn to improve your marriage by applying gospel principles, communicating with love, fostering equality and unity, overcoming anger, resolving conflicts, and finding ways to enrich your marriage.

No babysitting will be provided so please plan ahead.

Although it is best if both spouses attend each class together, spouses may alternate their attendance and work together during the week to ensure they are unified in their understanding and implementation of the principles taught.

Discussion leaders will be Dennis and LuAnn Hansen from the Falcon Park Ward. We hope to see you there!

Missionary Monday: Meet the Mormons

Meet the Mormons is here in Highlands Ranch!

It is showing at AMC. For more information, click HERE.

Meet the Mormons has opened to rave reviews, and had a great weekend debut. To read a press release from the church about the movie, click HERE.

This is a great movie to invite friends, family, and neighbors to. It is not a proselyting movie, but rather simply an informative movie.

If you had a neat experience with this movie, please send us your story! We would love to share it with the stake!

As a Stake Presidency, we encourage you to attend the temple on Thursday and bring a friend that may not have been in while.

"The saints in this temple district will be better able to meet their trials. Your families will be protected; your children safeguarded."

If you have Family File names and would like help from our stake members in completing the temple work on Ward Temple Day, we invite you to bring the cards to the temple office and put them in the Highlands Ranch Colorado Stake box, which will be available on the second Thursday of each month for Ward Temple Day. You can pick up the names any time after they are completed in the usual location according to normal temple procedures.

Stake Members who are willing to do Temple Work with Family File Names:

As you arrive at the temple, stop at the office and pick up Family File cards from the Highlands Ranch Colorado Stake box, which will be there on the second Thursday of each month for Ward Temple Day. After the work is completed, the cards will be returned to the office, recorded, and returned to the person who submitted the name in the usual fashion. You do not need to make any special arrangements to return them unless you are unable to complete the work that day, in which case you can return the card to the stake box before leaving the temple.

Thank you for your faithful service in the Temple.

Sincerely,

The Highlands Ranch Colorado, Stake Presidency
