SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY
Doctrine & Covenants 81:5

"Wherefore, be faithful; stand in the office which I have appointed unto you; succor the weak, lift up the hands which hang down, and strengthen the feeble knees."
Spencer W. Kimball
 
QUOTE OF THE DAY
Spencer W. Kimball

"We need to help those we seek to serve to know for themselves that God not only loves them, but he is ever mindful of them and of their needs. . . .

God does notice us, and he watches over us. But it is usually through another person that he meets our needs. Therefore, it is vital that we serve each other in the kingdom. The people of the Church need each other's strength, support, and leadership in a community of believers as an enclave of disciples" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Spencer W. Kimball, p. 81-82).

 

By late May, hospital emergency rooms throughout California and along the East Coast were packed with people complaining of severe flu symptoms. Interestingly, the U.S. doctors gave it the same name their Chinese counterparts did-the "Black Flu" because of the effect it had on people's skin.
