"The Family is Ordained of God"

"Husband and wife have a solemn responsibility to love and care for each other and for their children."

There is a family in our ward here in the mission that brings to mind a phrase from the Church's The Family: A Proclamation to the World

"Successful marriages and families are established and maintained on principles of faith, prayer, repentance, forgiveness, respect, love, compassion, work, and wholesome recreational activities."

There is a love and peace in their home, in their hearts and in their countenances. They treat each other with tenderness and respect. They love the Savior and serve in Church assignments without hesitation. They are without guile. They live simple lives and embrace all people. They share the gospel with others. They have diverse talents and share them freely.

We love the La Fleur family.

Isn't it wonderful to meet wonderful, faithful members in other parts of the country and the world? The look like such a loving family.

We have heard you speak of this wonderful family. It's nice to add their faces now. They do look like a special group!
