That’s great news about the upcoming series. I’ve been enjoying these stories and it’s wonderful to learn about and remember people who didn’t have storybook lives and weren’t famous. After all, I think that most of us probably fit into those categories and it’s comforting to realize that I don’t have to be governor or president to have a worthwhile life.

Thanks, Ardis!

Thanks for revisiting Annie with me.

This past week I have been gathering materials to write a new series of posts of Latter-day Saint women that very few people have ever heard of, and I’ll start posting those on Sundays starting next week. First up is an amazing Japanese sister, to be followed by stories from England and the Netherlands and Russia and the western U.S.

What an amazing woman. Thanks for this reminder of what the Gospel really meant to someone who had to live it all alone. This truly is an inspiration.

Good enough for seconds!

Thank you for remembering this sister, Ardis, and for helping the rest of us to remember her and others.

Beautiful. Two of my favorite principles of the gospel. Heavenly Father knows and loves each one of us. Heavenly Father is just and merciful, offering salvation to all regardless of our opportunities here on Earth.
