Fall Enrollment Is Now Open
If we are self-reliant we believe that through the power of Christ, and through our own effort, we can work for the spiritual and practical needs of life. You can become more self-reliant. And the self-reliance courses can help.
We are happy to use this website as a means of reaching as many in our stake as possible who are, or may become, interested in becoming more self-reliant. These are excellent courses which run 10 to 12 weeks for 90 to 120 minutes per meeting (Emotional Resilience is a 10 week course), so a strong commitment is required in order to obtain the full benefits of these courses. Courses are led by a facilitator who leads a group of up to 12 individuals.
From now through the end of September you can sign up for the courses below.
I encourage you to take advantage of one of the courses being offered.
You will find these groups facilitated by caring members of our stake, and you will also find that you will be able to contribute and to learn from others challenges and experiences.
When you take a course, you will find greater hope peace and progress in your life.
