  • The Teachings of Church Leaders Regarding the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ: 1852–2018
    The Teachings of Church Leaders Regarding the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ: 1852–2018 John Hilton III, Emily K. Hyde, and McKenna Grace Trussel rom the beginnings of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day FSaints (herein referred to as “the Church”), the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ has been at the heart of its theology. In numerous revelations received by Joseph Smith, the Savior is identified as having been “cru- cified for the sins of the world” (D&C 53:2; see also 21:9, 35:2, 46:13, 54:1, 76:41). President Brigham Young taught that salvation was only “through the name and ministry of Jesus Christ, and the atonement he made on Mount Calvary.”1 President John Taylor said that Christ “was crucified and put to death to atone for the sins of the world.”2 President Wilford Woodruff stated, “The Lord Jesus was crucified on Mount Cal- vary for the sins of the world.”3 And President Lorenzo Snow taught that Christ “sacrificed his life on Mount Calvary for the salvation of the human family.”4 In 1918, President Joseph F. Smith wrote “that redemp- tion had been wrought through the sacrifice of the Son of God upon the cross” (D&C 138:35), and in 1941, President Heber J. Grant testified that Christ “came to this earth with a divine mission to die upon the cross as the Redeemer of mankind, atoning for the sins of the world.”5 In brief, 1.

  • Summer Activity Guide 2017 Cache & Box Elder Counties
    Summer Activity Guide 2017 Cache & Box Elder Counties www.careaboutchildcare.utah.gov Summer Activity Guide 2O17 Cache & Box Elder Counties Summer Activity Guide 2O17 Cache & Box Elder Counties 6510 Old Main Hill, Logan, UT 84322-6510 435-797-1552 or 800-670-1552 www.careaboutchildcare.usu.edu A program of Department of Workforce Services – Office of Work & Family Life, Office of Child Care & Utah State University – College of Education & Human Services, Department of Family Consumer and Human Development. Utah State University is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer. Why Are Summer Activities Important? Seventy -six percent of all Utah school age children 5-12 years old have parents in the work force, creating the potential for many children to be left unattended. Many children are not prepared to be left home alone. Children in self-care are more likely to engage in risky behaviors, be truant from school, experience stress, have poor grades and abuse substances. They are susceptible to feelings of loneliness, fear and boredom. Summer activities are a wonderful way to offer fun, constructive activities to occupy your children’s time. Summer activities can give your children learning opportunities that not only help to ease their boredom, but can also help them become well-rounded, socially capable adults. We, at Care About Childcare - USU, have gathered this list of possible summer activities that may be of interest to you and your children. We hope that you will take the time to talk to your children and help them choose the activities that are best suited to their interests and your needs.

In its forty-nine year his­ 1 tory nearly forty thousand students attended B. Y. C. When the church gave word that it must be closed, many were shocked at the news.
