We believe in God the Eternal Father, and in his Son Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost.

We believe that men will be punished for their own sins, and not for Adam's transgressions.

We believe that through atonement of Christ all mankind may be saved by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the gospel.

We believe that these ordinances are, first, faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; second, repentance; third, baptism by immersion for the remission of sins;
fourth, laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost.

We believe that a man must be called of God by "prophecy, and by laying on of hands" by those who are in authority to preach the gospel and administer the ordinances thereof.

We believe in the same organization that existed in the primitive church; viz.,apostles prophets, pastors, teachers, evangelists, etc.

We believe in the gift of tongues, prophecy, revelation, visions, healing, interpretation of tongues, etc.

We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly; we also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God.

We believe all that God has revealed, all that he does now reveal, and we believe that he will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the kingdom of God.

We believe in the literal gathering of Israel and in the restoration of the Ten Tribes, that Zion will be built upon this continent, that Christ will reign personally upon the earth, and that the earth will be renewed and receive its paradisaic glory.

We claim privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our consciences, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may.

We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul, "we believe all things, we hope all things," we have endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.

Respectfully, Joseph Smith, Jr.

Notice
Good News…Living Hope Restoration Branch Is Having Live Services As Well As “Live Streaming”
Sunday School Classes at 9:00 am
Sunday Song Service at 10:00 am
Sunday Preaching Service at 10:30 am
Wednesday Prayer Service at 7:00 pm

 

We will follow this schedule for the time being.  We are asking for your patience while we plan services with the new recommendations in place.  Please limit your activity in the building to the sanctuary and the bathrooms.  The kitchen is closed for now.  Parents please talk to your children and explain that there can be no one in the kitchen for any reason.  This is for the safety of everyone attending.  We are doing our best to follow the sanitation instructions.  Parents can use the nursery if necessary.

 

We want our return to worship together to focus on the object of our worship and not on a virus. Please do not be offended if you see someone embracing a brother or a sister or sitting in chairs that are not six feet apart. Please do not be offended if someone does not want to shake your hand. These are very personal choices and the most important factor is that everyone feels safe.

 

Let us continue praying for one another and keep in touch as much as possible. Remember to be kind in a time of frustration and uncertainty.
Take care of each other as the Lord takes care of us all. 
Love you all,
Your Brother In Christ,
Pastor Rick Gard
