The location of the February class has been updated. It will not be held at Station 74. It will be held at the LDS Meeting House at 4505 South 3420 West. Click here for full details.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the people of Haiti and all those affected by the earthquake last week. The disaster brings into focus the painful reality of our own fragile situation. We've heard for years "it's not a question of if, it's a question of when a major quake will occur on the Wasatch Front." The other painful reality that the situation in Haiti brings into focus is the absolute need for us to be self reliant following a disaster. The rule used to be "72 hours".
