Church News Update includes article about new RS General Presidency Second Counselor Reyna I. Aburto

The Church News ran this article on the new Second Counselor in the Relief Society General Presidency, Sister Reyna I. Aburto. Additionally, the Church News reported that there is a new Pioneer exhibit at the Church History Library. To read more about that, click here. They also ran an article about the "Mormon Goal Scorer", an LDS woman who is a professional soccer player. You can read her story here. The Tabernacle Choir is having its annual audition season. For more on that story, click here. The Church also helped rebuild a school library in Deweyville Texas, which had been devastated by flooding. More on that can be found here. Upcoming Church events can be found summarized in this article. That does it for this Church News update. Any comments are welcome, if you are able to make them. If not, please let me know via my contact information on my blogger profile. Thanks.

Post a Comment

In addition to my life-long love for the subjects which I cover in the posts of this blog, I have long held the belief that we can disagree without becoming disagreeable. Differences of opinion are natural, while being disagreeable in expressing those differences is not. And in that sense, I have no desire to close the door on anyone who earnestly desires to contribute to the ongoing dialogue on subjects covered in the posts on this blog.

At the same time, however, I recognize that we live in a time when incivility, discourtesy, unkindness, and even cyber-bullying has regrettably become part of online interactions. With that in mind, while anyone who wishes can comment on anything if they choose to do so, I hereby reserve the right to immediately delete any comments which are critical, unkind, lack civility, or promote prodcuts, services, and values contrary to either the Church, or to the rules of online etiquette.

I'd also like to remind all who comment here that I try to respond personally to each individual comment as I feel is appropriate. Such replies are not meant to end the conversation, but to acknowledge earnest feedback as it is submitted.

And in order to better preserve the spirit and pure intentions for which this blog was established, I also hereby request that anyone not commenting with a regular user name (particularly those whose comments appear under the "Unknown" or "Anonymous" monikers, give the rest of us a name to work with in addressing any replies. If such individuals do not wish to disclose their actual given names, a pseudonym or nickname would suffice.

Any comments made by individuals who opt to not give a name by which they can ber identified may, depending on the substance and tone of such comments, be subject to deletion as well. I would respectfully ask that all of us do all we can to keep the dialogue positive, polite, and without malice or ill-will. May the Lord bless us all in our discussion of these important matters.
