Building a Spirit-filled home begins with daily prayer, scripture study, and acts of love that welcome the Holy Ghost. By fostering kindness, forgiveness, and faith, we create an uplifting atmosphere that strengthens our families and draws us closer to God.

“And it came to pass that there was no contention in the land, because of the love of God which did dwell in the hearts of the people.”—4 Nephi 1:15
Quote
