Adult Institute--Why is preparing for the Second Coming so important? President Nelson taught,
“We do not know the day or the hour of His coming. But I do know that the Lord is prompting
me to urge us to get ready for that ‘great and dreadful day’” (Russell M. Nelson, April
2025). With that prophetic urging in mind, I invite you to join a 12-week course titled
“Preparing for the Second Coming,” held Thursdays from January 8 through March 26,
7:00–8:00 p.m. in the Relief Society Room of the Lehi East Stake Center. All ages are
welcome. Come as you are. Info: Peter Brooks, 801-768-1344 cell, www.iLoveInstitute.com

The mission needs both English and Spanish-speaking couples, who love people, the restored gospel of Jesus Christ, and who could devote 30-40 hours per week to the work.
