Stake Message: Sept. 20, 2020

 

Special message from President Grasteit…

Dear faithful members of the New Canoga Park Stake,

Oh, how I long for the day when we can return to our ward buildings to worship together and in person. I miss the fellowship and strength I receive from rubbing shoulders with such amazing and devoted saints. 

Until that day, I plead with all the energy of my soul that we be consistent in the little things that connect us to God and His son Jesus Christ. Again, I speak of the Big 3: 

  1. Daily personal and family prayer

  2. Daily personal and family scripture study 

  3. Weekly Family Home Evening

I fear that if we fail to maintain and strengthen our relationship with the Divine during this unprecedented time, we will be more venerable to the whims of the world and the temptations of the adversary.  

I testify that consistency in the seemingly small things of the Gospel will produce miracles and spiritual protection in the lives of those who are faithful and diligent in heeding the counsel. I know God lives. I know Jesus Christ is His holy son and that He stands at the head of this church. I know He directs this work and is mindful of each and every one of us. 

Sincerely,

President Grasteit
