Cultivating Calm In Troubled Times

October 1-2, 2009,* Salt Lake City, Utah

*Pre-convention: September 30, 2009

"Acquaint now thyself with [God], and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee."

(Job 22:21)

"Brothers and sisters, though living in a time of commotion, we can stand in holy places and not be moved. Though living in a time of violence, we can have that inner peace that passeth understanding. Perplexing things will still happen, but, like Nephi, we can still know that God loves us, a felicitous and fundamental fact which can and will sustain us through so much!   (Neal A. Maxwell, October 2002 General Conference)

As AMCAP members, we can use our inner peace to help support those within our influence.
