High Priest Group Christmas Letter

We gave the following letter to the members of our High Priest Group on Sunday and I thought it would be a nice thing to post here. They're a good bunch of men.

Dear Brethren,

As a High Priest Group Leadership, we want to express our great appreciation to you for your dedicated service to the members of the Liberty Ward. We are honored to serve with you as we witness the selfless way you conduct yourselves.

We thank you for taking your Home Teaching stewardship so personally, continually watching over your families. We probably don’t appreciate it as much as those families do, as this is the only way some of them keep in touch with the Church.

We appreciate your attendance and participation during the lessons that our teachers are diligent in preparing each week. We have all learned and grown much from one another’s counsel and point of view.

We want each of you to know how important you are to our group. Each of us has unique talents and personality that add to the group, all of which are necessary for us to grow as individuals. As the scriptures state:

“For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. …
“For the body is not one member, but many. …
“And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.
“Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.”
(1 Corinthians 12:12, 14, 26-27)

During this holiday season, we wish all of you a Merry Christmas, and look forward to continuing to serve along side some of the most valiant men around.

With love,

[Signatures of High Priest Group Leadership]
