In Remembrance of Me- Greg Olsen

Inspiration often comes in unexpected ways. My approach to this piece was influenced by a rather unusual source--a photograph of John F. Kennedy. It was taken at a moment when the world was on the brink of war--the height of the Cuban missile crisis. Although President Kennedy was surrounded in his oval office by cabinet members and military advisors, he alone bore the weight of making those final crucial decisions. The photographer cropped everyone out of the picture except the President. He focused on capturing the President´s expression, which tells the story of this pivotal time in history. Nearly two millennia earlier, the Savior sat in an upper room. The world was on the brink of another kind of war, a great struggle between good and evil, a very real battle for the souls of all men and women. Though surrounded by His beloved apostles, the weight of the world´s sorrows--past, present, and future--rested on Him alone. No one else could comprehend what lay ahead in the dark shadows of Gethsemane or upon the rugged cross at Calvary. This Last Supper marks the beginning of the end. Judas has silently departed and is on his way to complete his treacherous bargain. The time has come for Christ to ""suffer all things."" Though understandably apprehensive, and wishing, even praying, that this cup might pass from Him, He nevertheless submitted His will to that of His Father. He went on to drink the bitter cup and drain the very dregs--because He loves us! In return He asks only that we remember Him, and in doing so, we are inspired to be more like Him.- Greg Olsen

Five of them were Wise-Walter Rane

President Spencer W. Kimball's book, Faith Preceded the Miracle, states: "Attendance at sacrament meetings adds oil to our lamps, drop by drop over the years. Fasting, family prayer, home teaching, control of bodily appetites, preaching the gospel, studying the scriptures—each act of dedication and obedience is a drop added to our store. Deeds of kindness, payments of offerings and tithes, chaste thoughts and actions, marriage in the covenant for eternity—these, too, contribute importantly to the oil with which we can at midnight refuel our exhausted lamps."

Fathers Gift

The gift of life is our most precious gift. The privilege to co-create with our spouse and our Heavenly Father is a sacred trust.
After losing a son, Joseph and Emma knew tragedy again in Kirtland, Ohio, when their newly born twins died within hours of birth. Losing children a second time was almost more than they could bear.
A few miles away, tragedy also struck the Murdock family. After bearing twins, Julia Murdock died, leaving her husband not only with the newborn twins, but five other children as well.
Brother Murdock heard of the Smiths’ great loss and called the prophet to his home. There, out of grief and selfless love much like that of our Heavenly Father’s, Brother Murdock asked Joseph to take the twins and raise them as his own. With difficulty and humble gratitude, Joseph carried the twins back home and placed them in the arms of his weak and grieving wife Emma.
A Father’s Gift portrays the love of three fathers. Our heavenly Father entrusted the twins to John & Julia Murdock. Brother Murdock entrusted them to Joseph, who brought them to Emma. Joseph and Emma loved and raised the twins as if they were their own.
